Leitz Sauvignon Blanc

The Sauvignon Blanc grapes were harvested in a new vineyard, located at so called Edelmann site. The soils are predominantly composed of profound loess loam; several parts contain marly soil from the Tertiary period and an intense gravel blend closer to the city of Oestrich. Hereby the water capacity of the soils is very high, and we have an excellent distribution of water and nutritive substances even in hot years. This is the requirement for wines with a
high concentration. The grapes were picked early October 2022. It is our new Sauvignon Blanc, which lead us to let the mash sit for a while before we pressed very gently to achieve the best balance between a delicious fruit, sweetness, and acidity.
