Riesling is one of the most fascinating and complex grape varieties in the global wine landscape, and the version offered by the Himmelreich winery, located in the picturesque Venosta Valley in Alto Adige, is a prime example.

This "Alto Adige Valle Venosta Riesling DOC - Himmelreich" boasts a bright straw-yellow color, with greenish highlights that hint at the freshness and liveliness of the wine. On the nose, the wine is extremely aromatic, with intense aromas of stone fruits such as peach and apricot, enhanced by subtle notes of lime and green apple. The mineral element, typical of Riesling grown in soils rich in sedimentary and schistose rocks, is clearly evident and intertwines harmoniously with a slight touch of petrol, a characteristic appreciated by connoisseurs of this variety.

On the palate, the wine demonstrates a sublime balance between sharp acidity and an almost imperceptible sweetness, creating a palate that is both robust and elegant. The structure is formidable, supported by a long aromatic persistence that invites sip after sip.

The winemaking process used by Himmelreich is meticulous, with controlled fermentation followed by aging in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruit's purity and the variety's typical freshness.

This Riesling is ideal as an aperitif or paired with light dishes such as seafood starters, fresh vegetarian dishes, or delicate white meats. Sushi or spicy snacks also find a remarkable drinking companion in Himmelreich’s Riesling. Equally important, this expression of Riesling can age gracefully, developing even more layered complexity over the years. Both collectors and new wine lovers will appreciate the sophistication and appeal this wine brings to every occasion.
