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: Draft liquor (champagne)
After blending, the wine is bottled with a liqueur de tirage (a mixture of sugar and wine) and a yeast (selected yeasts). The yeast attacks the sugar and creates carbon dioxide. The fermentation, which lasts about two months, is prolonged by an ageing period (15 months minimum in total). The bottle is capped (some rare vintages are capped with a staple and a cork).
