**Disclosure:** I import and sell this wine through The German Wine Collection. See my [ethics and disclosure policy](https://www.jessebeckerms.com/ethics/).

Sandstone, loess, and limestone. Part INOX, part Doppelstück. The producer's tech sheet states, "5 years on the yeast"; however, the AP number indicates "23" as the submission date, so \~33 months from tirage to disgorgement. 5.2 g/L RS. White mushroom, yeasty nose, freshly baked baguette, freshly sliced Granny Smith apple on the nose. A tart Riesling attack leads to lingering sour apple and lees on the finish. Delicious and "user-friendly!"
