Nik Weis St. Urbans-Hof Ockfener Bockstein Riesling Auslese 2022 is a powerful yet finely tuned dessert wine from one of the Saar’s most celebrated sites. Made from hand-harvested, fully ripe and noble Riesling clusters, it combines intensity with the remarkable precision and elegance that define top Saar wines.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Auslese typically shows a luminous, golden hue that hints at its ripeness and concentration. The nose is expressive and layered, with floral notes, white-fleshed fruit, and subtle accents of nutmeg and white pepper, all wrapped in the site-driven purity that makes Ockfener Bockstein so distinctive. On the palate, it is rich, complex, and beautifully balanced, with generous sweetness lifted by Riesling’s natural acidity. Expect a long, elegant finish and excellent aging potential, with the structure to evolve gracefully over many years, gaining further depth and nuance in bottle.

Production
The Ockfener Bockstein vineyard in the Saar subregion of Mosel-Saar-Ruwer is known for its steep slopes, cool climate, and slate-rich soils, which help preserve freshness while developing intense aromatics. For this Auslese, only the ripest and most noble bunches are selected by hand, ensuring concentration and purity. The vinification is carried out to preserve the precision of the fruit and the distinctive mineral character of the site.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with fruit-based desserts, tarte Tatin, crème brûlée, and fine blue cheeses, as well as dishes with a touch of spice such as Asian cuisine or pâté. Serve well chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, and consider decanting only if needed to open up the aromas of a very young bottle.
