Producer

Stepp

A new addition to Gerd's range, made from grapes from one of the oldest plantings of Cab Franc in the region. It has nice aromas with green leaf and capsicum. Dark fruit flavours emerge on the palate and mingle with the herbal character. It is supple and smooth with a succulent mid palate and cool fruit character. Planted on an east-facing slope overlooking the Rhine Valley, handpicked grapes underwent a cold maceration prior to fermentation. It was matured in second-fill French oak barrels for 20 months.
