Dr Pauly Bergweiler Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Kabinett (75cl, 8.5%)

Dr Pauly Bergweiler Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Kabinett is an off-dry Mosel Riesling at approximately 8.5% ABV in a 750 ml bottle. It comes from the Bernkasteler Badstube vineyard, a site with a gentler slope and richer soil than many of the estate's other holdings, where natural springs supply the vines with water. The vineyard sits adjacent to the Bernkasteler Doctor site, and part of the estate's Badstube holdings, the alte Badstube am Doctorberg parcel, is planted exclusively with Riesling vines over 35 years old. The wine is made from 100% Riesling and follows traditional German winemaking practices, preserving natural residual sugar and vibrant acidity. The nose opens with yellow peach, apricot, floral lift and pineapple, with flinty minerality underneath. The palate is juicy with mango, pear, tangerine and melon, with mouthwatering acidity. The finish is long and clean, with crystalline mineral tones, a salty quality and lingering pineapple.
