The place called Rebgarten is a small, well-kept vineyard (hence its name "The Vine Garden"), nestled against the first houses of Bennwihr. Facing south, consisting of a varied soil dominated by granitic sands, it is mainly planted with Riesling. Sheltered from the prevailing winds and benefiting from favourable sunshine, this terroir allows ideal ripening of the grapes.
Pressing of whole grapes. Strict settling for juice clarity. Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by a maturing on fine lees for more than 6 months with regular batonnage.
White gold with gold highlights.
Very fruity, we find white peach, meadowsweet. Beautiful minerality when opening (flint).
Fat but pointed attack, pronounced mineral structure, richness of citrus fruits (lemon then grapefruit).
Lively and fine, the Riesling Rebgarten is recommended with shellfish, frogs and snails, sauerkraut or poultry.
