All grapes are harvested by hand and no fining. After pressing, cold settling before fermentation begins and fermentation is is all natural. Vinified in foudre.
This is a crisp, refreshing wine with pronounced acidity. It demonstrates the cold-resistant characteristics of hard-wooded variety.
"Grown in pure granite, grand cru Sommerberg gives us a broadly structured Riesling that takes further shape in well-seasoned, old foudres. It’s hard to imagine this beauty could taste any better than it does now, but I’ll be curious to revisit it in five to ten years to discover what becomes of its intoxicating perfume of sweet honeysuckle and sleek petrol." - Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant
