Stein Rosé Trocken 2025 no-wrapin

Stein Rosé Trocken 2025 no-wrapinEverything about this wine shouldn't make sense: the list of red varieties that were for decades and decades verboten in the Mosel (Nazi wine law said so), the pale, delicate color, the fact that these grapes can all now ripen properly in the slate driven soils of this river region, the insane sloped and terraced vineyards on which they're grown and yet an affordable ros is being made off of such difficult sites But the good doctor Ulli Stein insists

instead of the hulking 14% brutes you'll see in the Côte d'Or sometimes

lending an herbal and spiced dimension to the wine

and a tiny touch of Xarel

hide your fires

Why are so many of us so intimidated when presented with the wine list at a restaurant

for the tension between softness and severity

but finishes refreshingly brisk with a mineral underpinning

This savory and earthy Cariñena sees as little intervention as possible

It's a beautiful

and roasted sweet potato

and acidity varying between 6% and 8%

Super juicy
