Grape: Gewurztraminer and Riesling
Year: 2023
Farming: Organic

This is a blend of Gewurztraminer and Riesling grown on the volcanic sandstone soils of Bungertal, near the village of Nothalten. The grapes are macerated for 24-48 hours before a gentle pressing and natural fermentation in old oak, where it ages for ten months on lees. ottled unfiltered and with no additives, this is a beautiful hazy straw color in the glass and is bursting with peachy fruit and floral aromatics without being overly perfumy. The palate is clean and taut with hints of savory herbs and spices, and a saline mineral streak that cuts through nicely.
