2021 Sylvaner Sandstein

Deutscher Landwein Main
Sylvaner
White wine

The Gambacher Kalbenstein is a terraced vineyard site along the Main River. The transition from limestone (Muschelkalk) to red sandstone (Sandstein) in the middle of the appellation allows us to showcase the Sylvaner's ability to express the characteristics of the soil in a very transparent manner. This wine is sourced from the river's lower part of the terraces, where the soil is a clay-rich red sandstone. It exhibits a more linear profile with a crisp acidity. The grapes are gently whole-bunch pressed and aged for two years in barrel. Nothing less.
