The vines are planted at elevated sites near Bergheim on thin, poor limestone soils of the Grande Oolithe, or Jurassic, fossil-rich limestone. The wine is made from a field blend of Riesling, Pinot Gris and Gewürztraminer. A slow spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts and twelve months’ ageing on the lees in large wooden casks are documented. Stylistically, it is off-dry, taut and mineral, with candied citrus fruit, mint and exotic fruit, lively acidity and a long, clearly sustained finish. The 2022 vintage shows unusually ripe yet taut fruit.
