The wine region of Nahe
Homeland of a mineral Riesling of exceptional geological expression: lively, precise whites with notes of peach, citrus, green apple, gunflint and fine salinity, from taut dry to botrytised sweet. 75% whites, Riesling king (27%) complemented by round Pinot Gris and supple Pinot Blanc. Rising reds: silky Spätburgunder with red fruit, darker Dornfelder. 4,240 ha along the Nahe river, among the most diverse soils in Germany (180 formations).
The word of the wine: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
