Weinlese 2023 Collage klein

Selected good!

Early selective harvest brought best qualities

This year we had to harvest the grapes in a selective hand harvest from the very first day. Never before has our experienced team started so early, as early as mid-September, with the early varieties Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay. Never before has the harvest been finished so early. Due to the very high temperatures, the Riesling grapes ripened quickly. Targeted sorting reduced the yield, but at the same time healthy grapes with high qualities could be harvested. Strong Kabinett Rieslings from the Trabener Würzgarten, a Spätlese fruit-sweet from the Enkircher Steffensberg and once again a noble sweet Auslese from the Zeppwingert are among the pleasing results. With the 2023 vintage, we are also producing for the first time a Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Kabinett trocken and a Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Auslese as well as a Chardonnay from the Trabener Würzgarten.

News from the unique Grand Cru vineyard:
Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Kabinett dry old vines

Ürziger Würzgarten is one of the most famous and unique vineyards on the Moselle, located in Ürzig and geologically part of the Wittlich depression. The deep, stony, copper-red slate soil (Rotliegendes) of volcanic origin is characterized by its good water and heat storage capacity as well as good aeration. The site faces south to east-southeast with a slope inclination of up to 69%.

🍷This dry, spicy and elegant Riesling from vines over 60 years old was harvested by hand. Spontaneously fermented in the cellar and matured in wooden barrels. An exotically spicy wine of great depth.
