DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
• Variety: Riesling • Region: Mosel • Vineyard: Leiwener Laurentiuslay • Soil Type: Grey slate • Fermentation & Élevage: Spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel tank\n\nLeiwener Laurentiuslay:\nA vineyard acquired by the Loewen's in 1982 when they were able to secure 6,000 old vines at that time, and since then, the vineyard has not been replanted. The vineyard was never able to be replanted because of extremely old stone terraces, so the original integrity of the site has remained intact. \n\nPortions of the Laurentiuslay vineyard are quite rocky, with its 40 to 80 percent slope rises in some places over the Mosel and is visible from far away, the Mosel downhill. Therefore, the vines are unshaded and benefit in their south-southwest orientation almost all day long from intense sunlight - the climate is hot but still well-ventilated by the open position of the GL. The gray Devon Schiefer also stores the heat throughout the day and gives it to the vines at night.
