Kestrel Riesling

Kestrel Riesling is a natural, bone dry Riesling wine crafted by Grandbois Wines, in the Mosel region in Germany.

Here, Riesling grapes are grown on Slate soils giving nice elements of minerality to the wine. To give some complexity, 15-20% of the grapes were late harvested, with 'Noble Rot' botrytis coming into play.

The Kestrel is on the label thanks to the bird often seen around the vineyards here.
