Awards/Ratings
Highly regarded as Keller's top Rieslaner expressions from Monsheimer Silberberg

Tasting Note
Intense exotic-fruit and stone-fruit aromas (mango, pineapple, passionfruit, apricot) with honeyed, citrus and flinty mineral notes. High acidity balances ripe sweetness, producing a concentrated, silky palate and an eternally long, clean finish.

Food Pairing
Western: blue cheese, foie gras, fruit tarts, lemon curd tart, panna cotta. Asian: mango sticky rice, spicy Thai curries, Szechuan dishes, Peking duck, sweet-savory dim sum sauces.

Production Method
Hand‑harvested, late-picked and carefully selected Rieslaner from Monsheimer Silberberg. Gentle pressing, cool fermentation partially arrested to retain residual sugar; matured briefly in stainless steel and bottled in 375ml.
