Simple, light and fruity reds with a pale, lightly coloured ruby robe, smooth tannins, an airy palate with moderate acidity, and understated aromas of red fruits. Rustic, discreet profile. Nearly extinct, preserved in a few varietal collections for its heritage value; among the old varieties whose commercial cultivation has all but disappeared, studied for their genetic and historical interest. Rare French black variety, little documented.

The wine region of Mittelrhein
Confidential gem of the German Middle Rhine, a UNESCO landscape. Signature Riesling (~65%): pure, chiselled whites with signature notes of lime, green apple, white peach, white flowers and marked slate minerality ("gunflint"), taut acidity and crystalline tension — from dry to sweet. Also light Müller-Thurgau and fine Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). ~461 ha on vertiginous terraces over steep schist overlooking the river.
The word of the wine: Mouth
The mouth is the third stage of wine tasting after the eye and nose. In the mouth, the taster identifies the aromas through the retronasal route, the flavours and the texture. It is in the mouth that the overall balance of the wine is apprehended.
