Nahe QbA Kreuznacher Riesling Steinberg 2018 S. J. Montigny

This Riesling Kreuznacher Steinberg is produced by the Montigny winery, a company that has been engaged in the production of quality wines since 1950. The coat of arms takes up the cross of the Huguenots and refers to the history of the Montigny family, who fled France 300 years ago to take refuge in Germany. The Steinberg is the place where the vines grow, which owes its name to the composition of the soil from which it is composed, mainly rock ("Stein").

Once in the cellar, the grapes are softly pressed, and then fermented in temperature-controlled steel vats (18 °C), where the wine is subsequently aged on the lees for 6 months. The wine continues aging in the bottle for 6 months before being put on the market.

In the glass, the wine appears straw yellow in colour. On the nose, there are aromas of exotic fruit, with delicate citrus and savoury notes. The sip is dry and fresh, with a pleasant fruity finish.

It goes preferably with Asian dishes, even spicy ones, and with stewed white meats.
