The Story
This wine is sourced primarily from the Berg Roseneck vineyard which has two very distinct sections. The eastern side is flatter with loess and loam soils, and as evidenced here, produces richer, more acidic wines. Grapes from the Bischofsberg vineyard are also used. Here, the clay and limestone soils result in rounder wines, and this contribution expresses itself right up front when you first sip this wine. Select grapes are hand-picked. Fermentation takes place spontaneously and naturally from ambient yeasts in Fuders - traditional 1,200 liter neutral oak barrels. The slow, gentle transformation into wines lasts around five to six months. Over this period the wine rests on its lees. No wood flavors are imparted on the wine, but this traditional use of barrels helps to smooth it out.
