One of the great Pinot Noir of the world, that just so happens to made from vines within the greatest Grand Cru site in the Pfalz region. Marl lime mixed with countless small limestone rocks characterises the soil in this small basin, facing south/south-east. Harvest is by hand, second sorting and destemming in the winery. In warm years we add some whole clusters. After a short maceration the crushed must ferments in wooden “cuvees”, with wild yeasts. Aged in new and reused French barriques. No fining, no filtration.
