The Mosel in western Germany produces some of the world's most ethereal and ageworthy white wines from Riesling planted on impossibly steep blue-slate slopes above the meandering river. The slate retains heat and reflects sunlight onto the vines in the cool continental climate, producing wines that combine ripe stone-fruit aromatics with searing, slate-driven acidity and modest alcohol — Mosel Kabinetts often weigh in below 9% ABV.
