Special characteristic

Hand-picked and hand-selected grapes. Gentle pressing followed by natural sedimentation to clarify the juice. Subsequent fermentation and maturation in temperature-controlled stainless steel.

Medium lemon. Extremely minerally on the nose, with pronounced spice and a hint of citrus. Beautiful mouthfeel, again with fresh minerality, lots of complexity, finesse, and an absurdly long finish.

'Ganz Horn' – a designated area within the 'Im Sonnenschein' vineyard – is a vineyard that enjoys shelter from cold winds. It is situated between 160 and 225 metres above level. The soil is a mixture of sand and sandstone as well as gravel and loam, while the incline varies between five and 20 degrees.
