Hand-picked and hand-selected grapes. Gentle pressing followed by wild-yeast fermentation in 1,000- and 3,000-litre oak casks. Maturation on the fine lees for 12 months, without any bâtonnage (lees stirring).
Seductive white fruit and exotic notes on the nose. Assertive and darkly spiced palate, with bright minerality, beautiful salinity and wonderful fruit expression. Elegant, long finish.
Erdener Treppchen – bordering Erdener Prälat directly to the east – is so steep that vineyard workers built a stone staircase into the hillside centuries ago so that they could access the vines more easily. This south-to-south-west-facing slope has ferrous red slate soil, yielding rich, racy, complex Rieslings that have an intense mineral aftertaste.
