Im Pitterberg:
Pitterberg lies in a small convex slope in the upper Nahe Valley in the middle of the Pitterberg vineyard. The south facing site is ensured sufficient sunshine that warms the grey Devon slate and its weathered debris. The soil is highly mineral; very fine loam covers the slate. The soil is well-drained and holds little moisture, which can lead to dryness in summer. Nightly fall winds are diverted by hill. This GG is picked mainly in the old domaine vineyards in the oldest an steepest part of Pitterberg, high density of plant up to 7500 vines per HA.

"What’s so funny about fruit, peace and understanding? Sometimes when I listen to young somms it sounds like the kind of beautiful stone fruit aromas that this wine has are grounds for scepticism, or even disdain. However, when that fruit is married to an elegance of this exalted kind, I don’t begin to get where they are coming from. Very long, super-clean, wet stone finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold."
