The grapes come from vineyard sites in the Markgräflerland with differing soils, including loess-clay as well as limestone marl and limestone soils on the edge of the Black Forest. The wine ferments spontaneously with ambient yeasts and matures for 12 to 18 months on the lees in used wooden casks and amphorae. This vintage shows white fruit and pronounced citrus notes, along with hints of spice and chalky nuances. Compared with the basic wine, it has more structure and a more pronounced, spicy bouquet. It is bottled unfiltered; only a small dose of sulphur is added.
