The 2017 Sommerberg Riesling by Blanck Paul comes from the renowned region of Alsace, an area characterised by granite soils rich in minerals that give the wine a pronounced minerality. The Sommerberg vineyard, situated at the foot of Trois-Epis between Katzenthal and Niedermorschwihr, extends to an altitude of 400 metres with a south-facing exposure, and vines planted in 1923 and 1947. The harvest is manual, with selection in the vineyard, while fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks using the natural yeasts present in the must. Vintage: 2017 Alcohol content: 13 Winery: Guyot Harvest/Vintage: Manual in crates with selection in the vineyard. Organoleptic notes: A young wine, with exotic nose and ripe citrus. On the palate, it has pronounced minerality. Soil: Granite, rich in minerals. Vineyard: The Sommerberg vineyard is located at the foot of Trois-Epis, south of Katzenthal and north of Niedermorschwihr; vines planted in 1923 and 1947 – altitude 400 m a.s.l. – south-facing exposure. Winemaking/Aging: Gentle pressing of the grapes; the must begins to ferment spontaneously due to the natural yeast present in the juice; fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks generally lasts from 4 to 10 weeks. This still white Riesling represents an interesting expression of the Alsace terroir, ideal for pairing with fish dishes or white meats. Its freshness and minerality make it a balanced and versatile choice, suitable for those seeking an authentic and characterful wine.
