The other half of Max Kilburg's Grand Cru dry Riesling pair, and an outright Mosel landmark. Piesporter Goldtropfchen wraps an amphitheater around the village of Piesport on a long outer bend of the river, all southeast-to-southwest exposures on deep, dark Devon slate veined with quartz. Where Kilburg's Ohligsberg is dark and architectural, Goldtropfchen is brighter and more fragrant: stone fruit, spice, herbs, a lithe and piercing line. Max, a 20th-generation grower trained by Julian Haart, makes this in dry Grand Cru style from old vines on the steepest gradients. The 2024 vintage was tiny but high-quality. A serious, electric Mosel white with both the sun and the slate of one of Germany's most storied sites.
