According to the description, the grapes come from old Sylvaner vines in the Grand Cru Schlossberg; the subsoil is characterised by granite. The destemmed berries were macerated for eight months, around 30 percent of the time in amphorae, and then matured on fine lees. The wine has a taut, salty and mineral style, with high energy, fine texture and sufficient density. The long skin maceration gives the white wine additional structure and a slight tannic impression.
