Origin:
On the top of the hill, high above the SAUMAGEN Grand Cru. A cool-climate site, influenced by the Palatinate Forest behind. Very dry, chalky soil.
Vineyard work:
Buckwheat, radish and clover aerate the soil and attract useful animals. Horse dung fertilizes the soil naturally. We remove leaves selectively and work with low yields.
Vinification:
Hand harvested and whole-cluster pressed. Wild yeast fermented and aged on the lees in stainless steel and big wooden casks.
Character:
Crisp, with salty minerality.
