Eden Sauvignon Blanc 2019

The wine is full-bodied, elegant and fresh on the palate, revealing wine tannins and mouthwatering lemon freshness and salinity paired with fine tannins. Impressive and worth checking out.

The best grapes from our Sauvignon Blanc vineyard have been allowed to mature in 320L barrels for a year. We rely on old cooperage from Burgundy, which in this case has made a name for itself on the Loire.

We see the ageing in wooden barrels as an opportunity for the wine to become even more delicate and not to absorb wood or roasted aromas. This chance to mature and oxidize does the wine good, for it becomes calmer, deeper and more subtle. It's fun to play in this Garden of Eden.

Blossoms, taut tangerines, ripe passion fruit, subtle creaminess - notes that come together into an elegant harmony that dances across the tongue and then encompasses the entire palate.

The first vintage is limited to 500 bottles. This particular vintage was featured in the anniversary episode of Röstoff hosted by Peter Smits and Ilona Scholl. Tune in from 1:17:00 – exciting insights are guaranteed.
