Description
Discover the fresh, semi‑sweet charm of the Starling Castle Riesling 750 mL, a classic German white wine from the heart of the Rheinhessen and Mosel regions. Crafted from 100% Riesling grapes, this wine opens with bright aromas of citrus, green pear, and a hint of nectarine. On the palate you’ll find a fruity mid‑palate framed by crisp acidity and an elegant finish — making it a versatile option for both sipping and pairing. It is soft in alcohol (around 8.5%–9.5% ABV) which enhances its light, refreshing character.
