The Foudre Ferment Riesling is full flavoured with hints of oak, spice and honey. It is well balanced with a touch of sweetness and a crisp acidity. It will continue to improve over the next 10 years.
Vines planted '78 and '98, whole-berry pressed, 4-6 days skin contact, wild-fermented in a 6yo foudre, where it was matured for 5 months on gross lees. It is remarkably rich and layered, yet intense and fresh. Unusual, but high quality.
