2021 Sybille Kuntz Orange Riesling
Sybille Kuntz’s 2021 dry (Trocken) Riesling from Mosel is produced with biodynamic practices and is crafted in the orange wine style by fermenting the grape juice in extended contact with its skins. Made entirely from Riesling grapes grown in the Mosel region, the wine is bottled in standard 75cl containers at 12% alcohol and is marketed in case format. Sybille Kuntz, who assumed management of her family’s vineyards in 1981 and introduced her first Orange Riesling in 2017, employs traditional Mosel viticulture combined with innovative skin-contact techniques to express the unique terroir of the region.
