The grapes come from the estate’s terraced, south- to south-east-facing steep vineyards; for older vintages of Blaue Libelle, poor Opok, calcareous marl and weathered limestone soils, as well as the Czamillonberg and Krepskogel vineyard sites, are mentioned. The wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation and is matured for an extended period on its fine lees in a large used oak cask. The 2024 vintage shows citrus zest, grapefruit, ripe apple, yellow pear, herbs, flint and wet limestone. On the palate, it is taut, spicy and saline-mineral, with lively acidity and fine phenolics. It is bottled unfiltered.
