Crisp bosc pear, wet granite, and honeysuckle. A racy entry dominated by citrus flavors, followed
balanced and round mid-palate reminiscent of key
lime pie. The finish is long and mineral-driven.

This Weisser Burgunder grows on warm, southwest-facing vineyard slopes where the gray slate soils store the
sunshine by day and distribute it back to the vines by night. As a result, the fruit can stay longer on the vine,
encouraging supple, juicy wines with intense aromas of melon and banana. The unmistakable Saar acidity
provides a final polish and clarity that inspired the diamond on the label.

To preserve all the delicate flavors that the vine produced, we generally harvest all grapes by hand, press with gentle pressure and do as little intervention in the cellar as possible. But we invest something essential: time. Patience and time pay off in viticulture and pressing, fermentation and maturation. We don't do any Fining, the sedimentation occurs naturally, only little amounts of Sulfur is added.

A light amber orange color is striking for the usually pale varietal, and the aroma and flavor are equally vivid. Apricot, almonds and a touch of honey give it unusual depth and interest, while good acidity deftly balances a rich mouthfeel.

...lively and graceful, this Chenin Blanc has lifted aromas of orange blossoms, white peach and honeydew melon....
