Tasting note

Viticulture

The grapes come exclusively from the Mandelpfad vineyard. The name means 'almond path' and refers to the famous almond trees in the area. The vineyard is sheltered and south-facing with deep loess and limestone soils, giving excellent ripening for fuller-bodied wines.

Vinification

The grapes are de-stemmed, crushed and pneumatically pressed. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks for 30 days at a temperature of 19 degrees C. The wine is then bottled after a further 7 months in a mixture of stainless steel and 600L traditional Halbstück barrels.

Food Match

Fish, white meats and poultry. It would go exceptionally well with goose.
