“Jesuitengarten” Forst Riesling Auslese

The “Jesuitgarten” is one of the very best vineyards in the village of Forst. Situated on a slope above the village of Forst, it is east-southeast facing with a very high content of volcanic balsat in the soil of the vineyards. This gives a very fine, delicate, and ongoing minerality to the wines. The name “Jesuitengarten” comes from the fact that this piece of land belonged to the “Jesuiten” monks and was used by them to grow vines. In medieval times, the monks and priests were the most knowledgeable about winemaking and the best place to grow vines. This wine is pale yellow with sultry aromas of white nectarine, honeysuckle and clove and accents of mint and cinnamon. The palate is silky and rich, faintly oily, and beautifully filled with tropical fruits, mint, sage and mineral notes. Lush and balanced by a well-integrated structure, it finishes with a supple spiciness and superb length. It is a great reflection of the site.
