Awards/Ratings
Stuart Pigott — 98 points ; Julian Haart wines have received high scores from critics in recent vintages

Tasting Note
Late-harvest Riesling with white peach, pineapple, orange blossom, floral honey and crushed-slate minerality; lively, piercing acidity balances medium sweetness, finishing long and stony.

Food Pairing
Spicy Thai or Szechuan dishes, shrimp fried rice, Indian curry, roasted pork belly, grilled white fish, sashimi/sushi, tempura, Korean BBQ, soft-ripened cheeses (Brie, Epoisses).

Production Method
Hand-harvested late (Spätlese) fruit; natural/spontaneous fermentation with minimal intervention; aged in large neutral fuder or stainless steel to preserve purity.

Vineyard Info
Julian Haart is a rising Mosel producer farming steep, old ungrafted vines around Piesport and Wintrich; small-scale, nature-oriented viticulture and meticulous, low-intervention cellar work.
