Pairing: Strong aperitif. Asian inspired dishes also with spicy ingredients. With a little maturity it can also be combined with spicy and hearty dishes, e.g. game stew or sauerbraten. Spicy cheeses and not too sweet desserts with exotic fruits.
To drink: thoroughly now. but can also remain well for another five to ten years.
Planted in 1904 and one of the few vineyards in the Moselle that is true to the roots. The grapes are very concentrated and small berried. After harvest, short maceration and open sedimentation. Fermented spontaneously in steel tanks followed by malolactic fermentation. Until bottling in August, the wine remains on the fine lees to develop its characteristic aroma. After bottling, the wine gets another year of bottle aging in the winery before being put on sale.
