Production Details Site context rather than a 2012 wine analysis: historical Abtserde forms the lower portion of Brunnenhäuschen. The VDP profile reports a 180–240 m elevation range and 20% slope; cooling west winds promote late ripening and a long growing season.
Tasting Notes Peach, tangerine, chalky minerality, citrus peel, bee pollen and spring flowers; medium-full, bright and lively, with mineral drive, emerging complexity, fine length, grip and a focused, filigreed finish
