Kontakt Weiss 'Save The Mosel'

Crafted by Finnish-Dutch winemaker Philip Lardot and his partner Rosalie Curtin in Ediger-Eller, this wine represents a bold departure from traditional Mosel styles. The 'Save the Mosel' designation on the 2023 vintage is a direct call to action. The lower Mosel's ancient, steep, hand-built terraces are on the verge of extinction due to the extreme physical labor required to farm them. Initiated by Philip's mentor, Ulli Stein, this project supports local growers by purchasing grapes from these endangered plots at above-market prices, preserving the region's viticultural heritage.
