Limestone. Organic. RS 4.45 g/l. Planted in the 1940s – his oldest vines. Such pure, stony citrus intensity on the nose. Lemon and lime and rock dust. Intense and mouth-watering on the palate and tastes fully dry thanks to the unusually high acidity (again, no malo, as on all the Schaal wines). Really precise and persistent. (JH)

This is very beautiful with lime, stone and green-melon character. Medium-to full-bodied and creamy with a flavorful finish. Mineral and flinty. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.
