Selective harvest involving several runs through the vineyard. Maceration (skin contact) for three to five days followed by gentle pressing. Fermentation partially in 600-litre and 1,200-litre oak casks and partially in temperature-controlled stainless steel. Subsequent maturation on the gross lees, with occasional bâtonnage (lees stirring), then bottling in August.

Medium lemon. Fine, succulent and pure yellow fruit on the nose, with peach as well as floral and minerally characters. Fresh on the palate, with vibrant acidity, more floral notes, and exceptional mineral length. Great ageing potential.

Sourced from 20 of the best rows of vines within the Nackenheimer Rothenberg Grosse Lage, where the terroir consists of massive red shale with a very thin layer of weathered topsoil.
