Family‑run Weingut Bastgen farm steep, slate vineyards around Kesten on the Middle Mosel, working organically and by hand on some seriously hard‑to‑work slopes. Their focus is clear: Riesling from blue and grey slate, made with native yeasts and minimal fuss in the cellar to keep the vineyard character front and centre. Feather‑light Kabinett with green apple, lime and white peach over a cool, stony backbone. A touch of sweetness is lifted by bright acidity, so it stays refreshing at about 8.5% alcohol.
