Wine information
The Sulz vineyard is a closed, quite warm basin site with loamy Opok lime marl soils. The vineyard lies at an altitude of 380 to 490 metres. The Kriewetz sub-vineyard, where there are chalky limestone deposits, is the oldest parcel with vines from the 1960s. The wine was fermented spontaneously to a residual sugar of 1.5 grams with 6.0 grams of acidity, then aged for 24 months on the fine lees in neutral barriques and bottled unfiltered.
Color
light golden yellow with light green reflexes
Nose
The Morillon in the Riede Sulz has a completely independent nose, which in the first moments reminds one above all of herbs and vegetables with a little fennel. However, this note fades in favour of ripe oranges with their zests, in favour of some lemongrass, yellow apple and light tobacco. All this is underpinned by crushed stone. The Chardonnay appears highly elegant, has depth and substance.
