DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
This wine is a true expression of terrior from the single best parcels from each of the three vineyards. Anrecht, a the south-facing parcel representing the most prized piece of the Himmelreich which was ranked in the top categories of the 1868 Prussian classification.Anrecht has the deepest subsoil of broken slate mixed with organic matter (humus) and loam. It is further away from river and village compared to Rotlay and Schmitt, hence a tad cooler but nonetheless excellent.
From a sliver of the Zeltinger Himmelreich vineyard with deep, loamy slate soils, it adorns strident, cool mineral tones with a riot of succulent flavors, from crunchy golden apple to meaty yellow peach, apricot nectar and ginger preserves. An earthy turmeric-like spice runs underneath, warm and golden. The wine retains its vivacity and detail for days after opening, suggesting this will live for years in the cellar.
