Riesling is an ancient grape variety originating from Germany, specifically the Rhine Valley. It is so distinctive that its nectar is often referred to as "RR," considered the Rolls Royce of wines and the king among white wines. Experts regard Riesling as one of the highest-quality white wines in the world. Its greatest asset is its unique aroma, which fully develops only in the second or third year after harvest, meaning the wine improves with age. The ideal wine color is slightly yellowish.
Riesling masterfully blends several intriguing flavors. On first impression, one might not notice, but apple, lime, honey, and petrol create a flavor cocktail that is hard to resist. The wine is harmonious, full-bodied, with a balanced alcohol-to-acidity ratio. Its distinctive aroma and pleasant acidity are key characteristics, and it is typically produced as a dry wine.
Clusters are small, densely branched, and vary in shape, weighing 60–100 grams. Berries are small, round, light yellow with black specks, becoming slightly brown when fully ripe, with a white bloom. Skins are thin, pulp dense, juicy, with characteristic varietal aroma. The flesh and juice are colorless. At normal ripeness, sugar content is 19–24% with acidity of 6–8‰.
Self-pollinating.
Highly resistant to low winter temperatures throughout the season. Moderate resistance to major diseases – intermediate tolerance to downy and powdery mildew. Sensitive to gray mold in rainy autumns.
You can purchase seedlings of Riesling grape at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
The depth of the pit is 40-50 cm, and the width is 30-40 cm.
First, a 5-6 cm layer of loose, fertile soil is placed at the bottom of the pit.
Cut the root of the vine seedling to 10 to 12 cm from the main stem (substrate).
Insert the vine seedling into the hole at an angle of 45°. The connection point of the coil should be 2-3 cm above the ground surface.
Once the seedling is placed in the hole, a layer of crumbly, fertile, and moderately moist soil is spread over the roots. The applied soil layer is then firmly pressed down.
The graft is supported by hand below the grafting point so that it does not move during pressing and compacting.
After the pressing and compacting of the soil is completed, the seedling is watered with 5 liters of water.
Then the remaining upper part of the hole is filled with a mixture of soil and organic fertilizer. The soil is first mixed with well-rotted manure, and then this mixture is poured into the hole and firmly compacted by pressing.
In autumn planting, apply finely crumbled soil over the planted seedling and form a mound so that only 1–2 cm of the branches remain exposed. The mound protects the seedling from freezing during the winter.
In spring planting, it is not necessary to form a mound.
