Johann Peter Reinert
Johann Peter Reinert produces Riesling from the Mosel, Germany's most celebrated cool-climate region. The winery's portfolio centers on the mineral-driven expressions the area is known for, with particular focus on vineyard-designated bottlings from Wiltingen and Ayler sites. The Riesling Wiltinger Klosterberg represents the core offering, a dry to off-dry style that captures the region's characteristic slate-driven character. The winery also works with Auslese selections—sweeter, botrytis-influenced expressions—including the Wiltinger Schlossberg and Ayler Kupp bottlings. These wines have been assessed by Wine Advocate and Falstaff. Mosel Rieslings at this level typically show bright acidity, stone fruit aromatics, and the ability to age gracefully, with the Auslese category offering richer texture and residual sweetness that balances the region's natural acidity.
