The grapes come from the steep Moselle slate vineyards around Reil; a single vineyard site is not documented for this wine. The pétillant naturel ferments spontaneously and matures extensively on the lees in a large used oak cask. It is bottled unfined and unfiltered, with no added sulphur and 0 grams dosage. Aromas include lemon, grapefruit, green apple, slate and yeasty notes. The style is dry, light and acidity-driven, with clear minerality.
