Zero Riesling

The wine

Max Ferd. Richter Zero Riesling is a Mosel Riesling from Mülheimer Sonnenlay. The Shiverick Imports sheet says the grapes were hand picked at Kabinett level, pressed and made like the estate’s normal single-vineyard Kabinetts, then dealcoholized in December 2025. The process it names is a membrane system: micro/nano-filtration splits off the alcohol-bearing fraction, vacuum distillation removes the alcohol from that fraction alone, and the dealcoholized and aroma parts are put back together before bottling. The sheet’s stated advantage is that aroma, acidity, and minerals are not put through the still. Alcohol is printed as 0%. Agricultural method is listed as traditional and vegan. The grape line is 100% Riesling.

The front label reads Max Ferd. Richter, Mülheim an der Mosel, and Richter Zero Riesling, and prints 2025. The estate homepage places the winery in Mülheim an der Mosel and does not list this bottle. The production facts on this page come from the US importer sheet, so verified stays no until a producer or label source supports the dealcoholized type. No volume, residual sugar, calories, or suggested price is on the sheet. There is no score.
