Steep, southeast-facing slope with grey clay slate soil. The morning sun dries the grapes, keeping them healthy; while the afternoon sun is not so direct, allowing the grapes to ripen for a very long time without becoming overripe. A perfect vineyard for Kabinett wines! The vines are 25 to 30 years old and yield about 50hl/ha. 100% selective hand harvest. Fermented and matured in stainless steel vats and large oak barrels. This is a Riesling with well-defined, spicy fruit, very elegant with a wonderful balance between fine fruit sweetness and firm acidity.
Yum! Addictively good drinking, sweet yes, but zingy almost in fizzy acidity. Has good whiffs of green apple, fern, honeycomb, lemon juice. So vivacious! Nicely balanced, precise and refreshing, zingy and cool. Delicious wine here.
