Our sweet wine, also known as "sticky" and identified as R139 in our range, offers a well-balanced taste, with the residual sugar lifted by the fantastic acidity that characterizes our terroir driven rieslings The cane cut riesling is an excellent complement to various food dishes, including foie gras, blue cheese, and desserts, without being overpowering. It pairs perfectly with desserts such as pineapple tart tatin and strudel, as well as stronger blue vein cheeses like roquefort

The vines selected for the dessert riesling are cane-cut where the grapes are then left to shrivel on the vine, concentrating the sugar within the berries, before being harvested later in the season.

After selective hand-picking, the fruit is gently bag pressed and cold settled for 48 hours. Post racking, the juice is inoculated with a neutral yeast and fermented at cool temperatures for around three weeks. After the ferment has been stopped at the required sugar level, the wine spends around 6-8 weeks on lees before being prepared for bottling.
