Despite its prominence in the Mosel today, Riesling isn't mentioned in German viticulture until the 1450s and didn't represent a majority of the Mosel's plantings until the late 19th century. It didn't take long for the two to acclimate to each other. It can be argued that no other wine possesses Riesling's combination of varietal intensity and ethereal balance. Writer Jancis Robinson says that Riesling "could claim to be the finest white grape variety in the world on the longevity of its wines and their ability to transmit the characteristics of a vineyard without losing Riesling's own inimitable style." The Mosel demonstrates Riesling's synergy of intensity and balance more dramatically than anywhere else in the world. The celebrated blue slate soil of the Mosel.
