Schieferkopf Baden Riesling Trocken

Bottle notes

The Schieferkopf Baden Riesling Trocken is sourced from vineyards planted on granitic soil with a sandy top soil recognised for the production of Grand Cru wines. This Riesling Trocken is fruity and floral to the nose, citrus, mirabelle and orange blossom all shine through. The palate has a taut, mineral structure, lovely roundness and is fresh with a very long finish.

Schieferkopf heralds a new discovery of Alsatian and German terroirs for the biodynamic pioneers from the Rhône valley - Chapoutier. On the French side, the Domaine, which uses organic farming, is located on the only vineyard on blue Alsace shale. In Germany, three vineyards enjoy exceptional terroirs with granite soils. Common to both is the maximum sunshine exposure and a mosaic of complex soils which brings subtlety to the grapes. Organic and biodynamic principles are used in order to allow the terroirs to shine through these unique wines. A number of Sélection Parcellaire (single vineyard selection) wines demonstrate why Riesling is the noblest of grapes
