The 2019 Pinot Blanc "R" shows beautiful intensity, distinct peach aromas, apricot, mirabelle plum and lemon zest are perfectly rounded off by fragrant summer flowers, hay, anise and lime blossom. Its finely chiselled fruit, brighter on the palate and reminiscent of apple and pear, flows together with an exceedingly discreet alcohol of just 12.5 vol%.

Info about the wine

The Weißburgunder R is a selection of the best Weißburgunder grapes from the vineyards around Hohen-Sülzen and the Rhine-Hesse part of the Zellertal. The Weißburgunder R is treated in exactly the same way as the wines from the Erste Lagen and the Große Lagen. The grapes are hand-picked when ripe and healthy at the core, and selected again by hand at the sorting table. Fermented and matured in used French Tonneaux, this wine matures on the fine lees until after Easter of the following year.

Color

Sparkling, brilliant golden yellow.

Nose

The 2019 Pinot Blanc "R" shows beautiful intensity, distinct peach aromas, apricot, mirabelle plum and lemon zest are perfectly rounded out by fragrant summer flowers, hay, anise and lime blossom. A breath vanilla, freshly whipped butter and bright tobacco refer to the exceedingly discreet use of the wood.

Palate

What a dexterous and filigree dancer opens up on our tongues, elegant melting combines with fine spice and salty grip. Its finely chiselled fruit, which appears lighter on the palate and is reminiscent of apple and pear, flows into each other with an extremely discreet alcohol of only 12.5 Vol%. With this Pinot Blanc, everything simply fits It not only provides great drinking pleasure that invigorates the palate, but it also proves how winemakers are extremely adept at dealing with the issue of climate change.
