Weinbach Schlossberg Grand Cru "Sous La Foret" 2020

75% Pinot Gris, 25% Riesling

Grand Cru Schlossberg: on a base of granite rocks, the soils are brown, slightly acidic, pebbly, of very good mineral fertility, of a shallow depth at the top of the slope and deeper at the bottom. The Schlossberg’s steep, south-facing slopes ensure exposure to optimal sunshine. The soils are very well drained and warm up very rapidly. This specific cuvee comes from plots acquired in 2019 and located at the very top of the hill (380-420m altitude), just beneath the forest. It benefits from cooler conditions than the heart of the Grand Cru, which helps keeping the Pinot Gris fresh and elegant.
