The Wine

The 2020 'Wineck-Schlossberg' is a profound and unconventional expression of Riesling. Sourced from the steep, granitic, and solar slopes of the Wineck-Schlossberg Grand Cru, this is a maceration wine. Unlike standard Rieslings, this wine underwent skin contact, resulting in an "Orange" style that captures the deep identity of the terroir. It is a raw, living wine bottled without filtration.
