Christmann 'Aus Den Lagen' Riesling 2021

"The basis of our wine line “Aus den Lagen” are all estate-owned, classified vineyards with their soils and microclimates, which are located on a length of almost five kilometers along the Haardtrand. Our “Aus den Lagen” series, which comes exclusively from classified VDP.ERSTEN and VDP.GROSSEN LAGEN, thus corresponds to a classic “Second Vin” in international comparison. With this new wine line, we can implement our focus on wines of origin from clearly defined single vineyards – true to our motto “Terroir down to the cellar” – even more consistently. Since the wines come “Aus den Lagen”, the best vineyards of our region, the name was obvious.

Harvested from the Gimmeldinger (Kapellenberg and Meerspinne), Ruppertsberger (Linsenbusch and Reiterpfad), Neustadter (Vogelsang) as well as Königsbacher (Idig and Ölberg) sites, concentrated Mittelhaardt terroir is bottled. Spontaneously fermented 2/3 in large wooden barrels, the Riesling is bottled in mid-April." Steffen Christmann.
