2021 Weingut Saalwachter Weisserburgunder "Hoher Fels", Rheinhessen, Germany
$104.00
The vines here were planted in the mid-1990s. Rather northern exposure above a quarry. Carsten Saalwächter has selected a few barrels from this very barren high-altitude plot, which have developed completely independently. Matured in barrels, including the oldest Stockinger barrel from the 1990s.
