Wasenhaus Weissburgunder 2023

Wasenhaus Weissburgunder 2023Notes from the winemakers: Pinot Blanc from volcanic soil on the Kaiserstuhl and some loess plots south of Staufen. Direct pressed as whole clusters and fermented in used barrels of different sizes (300 600L). Aged for one year on the full lees in barrel and another half year in stainless steel on its entire lees.

Bottled unfiltered after about 10 months

It’s a compelling wine

I'd say it has a little more earnest California clarity

Complex and singular

From two parcels planted on clay

Labeling rules exclude us from presenting varieties and vintage on the label

Despite the dizzying collection of grapes

done gently and never to exact too much tannin or color

"The bat on the label is the grey long-eared bat which has become very rare in our area

and Muscaris

making this a deceptively food-friendly wine

the subzone of Modigliana is an exceptional place for Sangiovese
