Wine information

This year, the Christmann winery's range has changed. Instead of the estate and local wines, there are now the wines From the layers. These wines come from the estate's own classified vineyards along the Haardtrand, all of which have either the status of a Erste Lage or a Große Lage according to the criteria of the VDP. The Pinot Blanc comes from old vines in the Gimmeldinger Schlössel and the Pfarrwingert. It was harvested by hand, fermented spontaneously, warm and with lees in new double barrels, where the wine was also aged.

Color

medium straw yellow

Nose

The Pinot Blanc From the sites is an elegant representative of this grape variety right from the start. It opens with notes of lime blossom, blond tobacco, almonds and still crisp white peach. Particularly fine is the hint of a reductive flint note and of the fine wood. The fruit recedes in favour of slightly spicy notes in this wine.

Palate

The palate once again shows the great breakthrough that Burgundy varieties have experienced at Christmann in recent years. This Pinot Blanc presents itself focused and clear, juicy, fresh and precise with a comparatively powerful but always elegant acidity typical of 2021. The wine appears salty, rich in extract with fine grip and also here with a fine spiciness in which the tobacco also flashes up again. The wine has depth and substance, but also a wonderful lightness. And above all, it seems calm and balanced. It doesn't need to show off, not a single gram of wood is used too much. Everything is simply harmonious.
