KÜHLING-GILLOT - QVINTERRA RIESLING TROCKEN 2023
TASTING NOTES
This Riesling is full of juicy fruit. Light yellow, it flows into the glass with bright reflections and combines juicy fruits with cool minerality and finely spicy herbal notes on the nose. The aromas of yellow fruits such as pineapple and nectarine are also reflected on the palate and, underlined with saline notes, ensure rapid drinking. From cheese bread to chicken soup, it is the ideal all-rounder.
Five different wine villages and five different soil types inspired the creation of the Latin term Qvinterra. The name indicates that our estate owns vineyards in the five famous villages on the Rhine Terrace: Oppenheim, Nierstein, Nackenheim, Bodenheim, and Laubenheim.

In 2014 she took out Germanys winemaker of the year becoming the first female to take out this prestigious prize. What has made Caroline’s work so special is her dedication in the vineyard and experimentation in the cellar.
