Notes & Pairings

100% Rhine Riesling, this spent slightly less time on the skins than the Rizling at just over 2 weeks in open vats. It was then barreled down on the lees for 9 months in Hungarian oak and then bottled unfiltered with a small addition of SO2 (~29ppm). It carries a familiar Riesling signature, but the aromatics and texture (just over 2g/l RS) and overall balance is something unique and delicious. Only 1600 bottles produced. This is a rare treat from north of the Danube.
