Königswingert, the single vineyard site, is a cru with deep mineral rich soils of alluvial stones and lots of sandstones, allowing the vines’ roots to dig deep and find water and nutrients. A complex wine, it has spices, apples and yellow peaches on the nose, and a tangy lemon lime acidity with more sour green apples and great depth.
Stepp Riesling vom Fuchsmantel (Bad Durkheim) Single Cru Pfalz
This is a wine of substance with fresh apples, apple blossom and quince aromas. It has good depth on the palate and a long finish indicating potential for aging and developing complexity. Fuchsmantel, meaning “fox’s coat”, is a classic terraced vineyard site. The Stepp vineyard is located in the lower part of Fuchsmantel on loam-loess soils high in coloured sandstones with good water retention.
