Dechant - Blauburgunder 2007
The vines for this wine grow on chalky loess and clay soils on the southeastern terraced slope of the single vineyard Dechant. (that is the german eqqivalent of “Dean” – the vineyard of the priest was of course meant to be something special) In the more elevated sites, the soil is interspersed with decomposing primary rock.
A traditional vinification includes one and a half weeks maceration followed by maturation in 2-3 years old 300l-Austrian oak barrels.
Alc 13,0 % Vol.- acidity: 5,1g– dry

a very successful companion to food accompanying all types of grilled meats including game, duck, and goose as well as all sorts of roast or braised meats; prefers fresh cheeses. |
