2024 Günther Steinmetz Riesling Mosel Piesporter Treppchen Grosses Gewächs

The 2024 Günther Steinmetz Riesling Piesporter Treppchen Grosses Gewächs is a striking Mosel dry Riesling from one of the region’s most respected names. Sourced from the steep Piesporter Treppchen vineyard, it combines precision, minerality, and unmistakable Mosel character, with the Grosses Gewächs designation signaling top-site quality and serious dry-wine pedigree.

Tasting Notes
Expect a pale, bright straw color with a crystalline sheen. On the nose, it typically shows classic Mosel Riesling notes of lime, green apple, white peach, and wet slate, with subtle herbal and floral accents adding lift and complexity. On the palate, the wine is likely taut, racy, and focused, with citrus-driven freshness, fine acidity, and a pronounced mineral core that reflects the steep slate slopes of the site. It should have excellent balance and the structure to develop beautifully in bottle over the next several years, gaining depth, petrol nuances, and added texture with age.

Production
Piesporter Treppchen is one of the Mosel’s classic steep-sloped vineyards, where slate soils and a cool climate help produce wines of tension, purity, and mineral precision. For a Grosses Gewächs release, the fruit is generally harvested by hand at optimal ripeness and vinified dry to emphasize the site’s character rather than sweetness. The style is usually crafted with restrained cellar intervention to preserve freshness, transparency, and terroir expression.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as grilled fish, shellfish, sushi, roast chicken, asparagus, or lightly spiced Asian cuisine. Serve chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, and consider a brief decant if you want the aromatic detail to open up more quickly, though it can also be enjoyed straight from the bottle.

Producer
Günther Steinmetz is a highly regarded Mosel producer known for precise, terroir-focused wines that showcase the region’s steep slopes and slate-driven style. The estate has earned a strong reputation among Riesling lovers for combining traditional Mosel character with a modern commitment to dry, site-expressive wines, and it is widely respected for the quality and individuality of its vineyard bottlings.
