Weingut Später-Veit is a Mosel Valley estate run by the husband and wife team of Heinz and Silvia Welter. The name of the estate comes from Silvia's maiden name, Später, as well as that of her mother, Veit, one of the oldest wine-growing families in Piesport. In 1988, Heinz took over winemaking from Silvia's father, continuing the family tradition of crafting complex, age-worthy Rieslings from some of the highest quality vineyards on the Piesport slope. These southeast to southwest facing vineyards are composed of the famous Devonian slate soils — the perfect home for Riesling vines. The wines made from these vineyards display a glorious richness, acidity and minerality, while maintaining superb balance and elegance. Heinz and Silvia farm seven hectares of vineyards on the slope with the help of their two sons, Eric and Niklas.

Später-Veit's Riesling Trocken is sourced from vines of 30 years of age grown in soils of clay and blue-gray slate. The wine pours a glistening pale gold in the glass presenting mouthwatering aromas of citrus-kissed orchard fruits marked with hints of petrol and beeswax. The light- to medium-bodied palate offers vibrant flavors of pear, Golden Delicious apple and lime zest supported by a lip-smacking acidity and a slatey, mineral zing. This Riesling finishes long, bright and refreshing. Enjoy with cured meats, shellfish dishes, grilled pork sausages or roasted chicken.
