This ethereal expression of Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc) from the Baden in Germany hails from 60 year old vines that thrived on a limestone parcel near old Pinot Noir vines. The fruit was macerated for four days on its skins, for a bit of added structure, then pressed off and moved into a combination of neutral barrel and stainless steel where it rested for a bit. 25% of the juice stayed on its skins, and matured for 10 months on the lees, giving this wine a more opulent texture. Bright, complex and beautiful - not your average Pinot Blanc in the least.
- Enderle and Moll are German iconoclasts, and produce what some consider to be the best expressions of Pinot Noir in all of Germany. They were one of the first producers to practice biodynamic farming and natural winemaking in the Baden region.
- Each wine is pressed in a small basket press, with zero added yeasts and enzymes. The wines are bottled and have a minimal amount of sulfur added for stabilization.
- Müller-Thurgau is a crossing of Riesling and a rare grape called Madeline Royale, resulting in a very aromatic grape.
Vibes with:
- Meteor showers.
- Smores at a roaring campfire.
- Star projector lamps - like this one.
