Product Description
From the Leutesdorf Gartenlay on the Mittelrhein's iconic slate slopes, Marc Josten cold-macerates this sauvignon blanc before 50% barrel and 50% large oak cask ageing — a hallmark technique producing one of germany's most compelling sauvignon blancs.
- Nose: Candied ginger, gooseberry, citrus, herbal savouriness, and a balsamic oak lift — complex and seductive
- Palate: Taut and textured — blackcurrant, citrus zest, candied pineapple, with seamlessly integrated acidity and rich extract
- Finish: Long, saline, and persistent — fine spice, balsamic oak, and a mouthwatering slate-driven minerality
