Grapes: 100% Silvaner

Sourced from a limestone parcel just some meters down from the “Grand Cru” Gässberg, from 20 year old vines on a south/southwest facing slope. Leipold’s “Muschelkalk” bottling (this is bottled in a Bocksbeutel) is a very serious wine. Very taut and linear on the palate, with white citrus and saline notes, here we get into that Silvaner-as-more-Chablisienne-than-Chablis thing. Yet there is a slimness to the wines, a focus that makes these feel even more incisive than most Chablis. Stunning wine.
