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: Oxidative (breeding)

A method of ageing which aims to give the wine certain aromas of evolution (dried fruit, bitter orange, coffee, rancio, etc.) by exposing it to the air; it is then matured either in barrels, demi-muids or unoaked casks, sometimes stored in the open air, or in barrels exposed to the sun and to temperature variations. This type of maturation characterizes certain natural sweet wines, ports and other liqueur wines.
