S. Silvaner - Steilhang Muschelkalk - Tonneau 500 - Weingut Lange - Schloss Saaleck
Weingut Lange - Schloss Saaleck

A wine with strong character S. stands for Silvaner. Grown in a steep old vineyard above the town of Hammelburg. Cordon upbringing - lots of old wood. The trunks continue to grow horizontally. Here we only work by hand and the machines are attached to the cable pull. The selectively harvested grapes were first left in a vat for several hours - up to a day, which the experts call cold maceration. The smallest microbiological processes in the berries happen here, aromas are released from the berry skins and thus even more taste is formed. Insanity! Then gently pressed and spontaneously fermented with the wild yeasts from the vineyard and wine cellar in 500 liter tonneau oak barrels. The young wine is allowed to mature together with the yeast until it is bottled. Over time, the yeast settles at the bottom of the barrel. Later we bottle the wine without filtration. Goes well with strong and creamy dishes. An excellent wine. In addition to the perceptible wood aromas, the smell and taste are reminiscent of ripe yellow fruits such as apple and gooseberry. The pleasantly tart herbal note combines with the tannins and minerals of the shell limestone soil. A powerful, harmonious wine with a creamy character. vegan Before enjoying, we recommend carafing the wine. A Large Growth - SILVER international organic wine award - low sulfur content
