Altenberg Riesling Trocken - Magnum - Von Othegraven is a prestigious German white wine, which comes from the renowned Altenberg vineyards, managed by the historic Von Othegraven winery. Located in the Moselle region, this winery boasts a long tradition in the production of high-quality Riesling wines, taking advantage of the peculiar climatic and soil characteristics of this excellent wine-growing area.

Presented in an elegant Magnum format, which enhances its presence and favors optimal evolution over time, the Altenberg Riesling Trocken is characterized by a marked dryness, an expression of the precise oenological choice to produce a Riesling that reflects in a pure and direct way the terroir of origin.

At sight, the wine has a brilliant straw yellow color, with greenish reflections which testify to its freshness. On the nose, intense aromatic notes of citrus fruit, green apple and peach stand out, enriched by mineral nuances and a light hint of flint, which gives complexity and depth to the olfactory bouquet.

In the mouth, the Altenberg Riesling Trocken offers a lively and fresh attack, with a well-balanced acidity that supports its structure and accompanies a range of flavors that echo the olfactory sensations. The finish is long and persistent, with an aftertaste that leaves a pleasant clean sensation and invites another sip.

Ideal as an aperitif or paired with fish, seafood, Asian cuisine and vegetable dishes, this Riesling Trocken is also perfect for accompanying convivial moments, thanks to its ability to stimulate the palate and encourage conversation.
