Cork

Owned by Peter Sisseck and Silvio Denz, it is Sisseck's touch you feel all over this wine. Inky depths to the colour and clear concentration of the crushed raspberry and mirabelle plum fruits are for starters: things really take off through the palate. This is a whole different ball game and everyone on the plateau should taste this wine. 

It's complex but with a feather-like texture that feels drawn out and juicy, reticent without being austere. It's just an utterly enticing handling of the mineral possibilities of limestone. Having tasted the components at the estate a few weeks ago, and the blend during En Primeur, I can't wait to try it in bottle too. 

30% new oak highlights the artistry in this wine. 28hl/ha yield.
