Special characteristic

Selective manual harvest of immaculate grapes. Gentle pressing followed by a slow wild-yeast fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel (i.e. based on the natural, indigenous yeasts present on the grapes). Maturation on the fine lees until just before bottling, to add character and body.

Medium lemon. Intense nose of apple, citrus and spice. Crystalline on the palate, with very chalky, mineral-driven structure and tension. An exceptional ensemble.

The relatively elevated position of the Steinacker vineyard and the presence of a massive seam of limestone underneath ensure long hang time to produce in Rieslings of great finesse.
