With this 'Ortswein', winemaker Boris Kranz proves that the terroir of Ilbesheim also produces world-class red wines. The Spätburgunder vines grow here on complex soils of limestone and loess. This yields concentrated grape bunches and gives the wine a beautiful structure.
After manual harvesting and spontaneous fermentation, the wine is given ample time to mature in oak barrels. Now, a few years later, it reveals its true potential. The aroma is enticing and layered. On the palate, it combines power with finesse. The tannins are silky smooth, and the calcareous soil ensures beautiful expression and a long finish.
