DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
• Variety: Riesling • Region: Nahe • Vineyard: Oberhäuser Leistenberg • Soil Type: Grey, carbon-laced decomposed argillaceous slate • Fermentation & Élevage: Fermented and matured in stainless steel vats and large oak barrels\n\nOberhäuser Leistenberg:\nThe Leistenberg vineyard lies in a small side valley of the Nahe just outside Oberhausen. The name is a double play on words. Leisten means achieve in German, and the Leistenberg perpetually lives up to its name. Lei is also a regional word for slate, and these warm, decomposed clay slate soils and steep terraced hillsides provide ideal conditions for Riesling to thrive. Th e southeast-facing slope basks in the morning sun, which dries out any excess moisture and promotes healthy fruit. Th e afternoon sun is less powerful, nurturing a long ripening period and moderate alcohol levels. An ideal vineyard for Kabinett wines of high minerality and sophisticated elegance.
