AboutStiftungsweingut Vereinigte Hospitien
Vereinigte Hospitien in Trier belongs to a charitable foundation established under Napoleon in 1804. Wine sales help fund its care for older and ill people. The winery still uses a cellar dating to Roman Trier.
Riesling occupies about 90 percent of its roughly 24 to 25 hectares of vineyards along the Mosel and Saar. The estate has four vineyards under sole ownership, and its records mention Riesling cultivation as early as 1464.
Hospitien 2019 Riesling Trocken
German White
$39.99
Lime, green apple and lemon lead a zesty dry Riesling profile, with a light petrol note and slate-like minerality adding classic Mosel character. Moderate acidity keeps the palate precise and composed, carrying subtle stone fruit into a straightforward, clean finish. Serve with shellfish, schnitzel or lightly spiced vegetable dishes.
Hospitien 2019 Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Riesling Spätlese
German White
$64.99
Ripe apricot and yellow peach lead a lush, fruit-driven palate, with honey, citrus and caramel-crusted almonds adding richness. The sweetness is generous, but vivid acidity and a mineral-spice line keep the wine energetic rather than heavy. The finish is long and gently savoury. Serve lightly chilled with spicy food, roast pork, washed-rind cheese or almond tart.
Hospitien 2016 Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Riesling Kabinett
German White
$49.99
Showing graceful development while retaining plenty of life, this finely balanced Riesling brings honeydew melon, white peach and yellow pear into focus. Bright citrus zest cuts through the ripe fruit, while a gentle slate-like savouriness keeps the palate composed. The finish is clean, lifted and persistent, making it a natural match for smoked trout, roast pork or lightly spiced dishes.
Hospitien 2003 Auslese Sss
German White
$69.99
The palate is richly mature and silky, with dried apricot, honey, orange peel and a gentle caramelised-nut character unfolding around the sweetness. Fresh acidity keeps the texture from feeling heavy and draws the wine toward a long, composed finish. Serve lightly chilled with blue cheese, fruit tart or almond-based desserts, or enjoy slowly on its own.
Vereinigte Hospitien 2019 Serriger Schloss Saarfels Riesling Kabinett
German White
$51.99
Juicy apple and citrus lead this classically fruity Saar Kabinett, balanced by lively acidity and a fine mineral line. Light on its feet yet expressive, it finishes fresh and poised rather than dry. Serve chilled with spicy dishes, smoked fish, soft cheeses or roast pork.
