This vineyard is designated as Grosses Gewächs (Great Growth) by the Verband Deutscher Qualitäts- und Prädikastsweinguter (VDP) — the association of Germany Qualtiy and Pradikat Wine Estates.

Ageing: Fermentation in stainless steel lasted for 4 months sur lie with an additional 10 months in tank or old oak barrels before bottling.

Tasting Notes

Vibrant gold in color. Complex aromas with slate and mineral tones on the nose. On the palate, full-bodied, rich, smooth, creamy texture backed by firm acidity. Outstanding with savory meats such as duck, goose, veal and turkey, as well as rich seafood such as lobster and monkfish. Grosses gewachs.

Critical Reviews

Full bodied and dry, this is a silky, intensely penetrating sip that's studded with pristine lemon, grapefruit and lime flavors. It's lusciously ripe and concentrated, but deftly balanced against a firm backbone of acidity and layers of crystalline minerality. It's gorgeous already but will improve through 2030 and hold for even longer. ~94WE, Editor's Choice
