    Clean Slate Riesling - Super

    By: Jon Thorsen Published: October 2, 2021 Last Updated: January 22, 2023

    Slightly sweet and totally delicious, the Bulk Buy rated Clean Slate Riesling.

    Clean Slate Riesling - Super

    100% Riesling from vineyards throughout the Mosel region in Germany. The wine is aged in stainless steel tanks for 4 months and has 20 g/L of residual sugar.

    Sample submitted for review. The Clean Slate Riesling has an SRP of $12 but is available for as low as $8. 625,000 bottles were produced and it is imported by Winebow, Inc.

    From the bottle:

    The thin slate stones of our vineyards in the Mosel River Valley are a critical factor in crafting a Riesling of exquisite balance. So precious are these stones that those which slip into the river are carefully carried back up the treacherously steep vineyard slopes and returned to place. Reflecting and retaining heat, the slate is essential to ripening grapes in this cool climate, developing the wine's fresh peach, crisp lime, and subtle mineral flavors.

    10.5% Alcohol

    The 2019 Clean Slate Riesling begins with quite an attractive aroma of lemon, honeysuckle and peach along with hints of petrol and a stony minerality.

    Tasting the wine reveals that just like the name suggests, it's certainly clean. Delightfully juicy and lightly sweet with a bright acidity, this is tasty and super easy to drink. It features similar flavors to the nose with some added tropical fruit in the mouth.

    It ends with a crisp, lip-smacking finish that lingers for quite awhile.
