Soil Thin muschelkalk limestone over shallow mother rock
Orientation South To Southeast Facing
Vineyard Yield 39 hL/ha
Vine Age 49
Bottling Date January 2020
Production Details Sweetness index 1. This cuvée came from older parcels planted in the 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s, while early-1990s vines were declassified into Roche Calcaire. Very dry harvest conditions helped preserve wild yeasts and the wine fully fermented; it received 18 months of full-lees ageing.
Tasting Notes April 2020 producer note: pale yellow; reductive, austere and tight at first, opening to toasted and smoky aromas followed by ripe fruit; powerful, intense and full-flavored palate with a rich velvety finish.
