      Vineyard: One of the most legendary and famous vineyards in the Middle Mosel valley. Extremely steep, south facing, with not too dry volcanic soil with influences of blue Slate.

      Tasting notes :

      "The Auslese is very clear and aromatic on the nose and delivers a perfectly ripe, very precise and elegant stone fruit aroma along with very fine slate and spicy flavors. The wine is highly elegant and delicate in the mouth but also intense and salty, with a long, very stimulating and nicely grippy finish." (Mosel Fine Wines, Issue 38)
