The Solera is based on the 2017 vintage and was topped up annually until 2023; a single vintage designation is therefore not meaningful. The grapes come from Ergersheim, where the estate works on clay- and limestone-rich soils. Several vintages were blended in a large oak foudre and matured together for around five years. Vinification takes place with indigenous yeasts and no added sulphur. In the glass, the wine is dry, dense and distinctly salty, with lively acidity, a creamy mouthfeel and aromas of candied lemon, acacia, honeysuckle, wild rose and flint. A slightly oxidative Solera note shapes the long finish.
