WINE EXPERTISE
2019 Dürkheimer Fuchsmantel Riesling trocken
VDP.FIRST LOCATION
Organic wine (DE-ÖKO-039)
The soil and the grapes:
A healthy soil with diverse soil life allows the vines to thrive optimally. We create this basis by working in harmony with nature. So the decision for us to work according to EU ecological guidelines since 2009 was obvious. The grapes for this Riesling come from the Dürkheimer Fuchsmantel site. The terroir consists of clay, red sandstone and pebbles.
Our expansion:
The harvest of golden yellow, ripe grapes provides the basis for a characterful wine with an expressive terroir. The vinification was carried out by a controlled, cooled fermentation with wild yeasts 100% imstainless steel tank.
Our wine:
Scent of exotic fruits and apricots. On the palate a fruity minerality and perfectly integrated acidity. Long finish and excellent aging potential.
Analysis data:
Alcohol: 12.7%
Residual sugar: 3.1 g/l
Acid: 6.6 g/l
VDP. PREDICATE WINERY
As a founding member of the VDP association, focus at Fitz-Ritter is on Riesling from the best vineyards. The wines are predominantly dry and clearly reflect the typical character of each provenance. Full-bodied and spicy, delicate and fine – the wines from each vineyard show great diversity. Sweet predicate wines round off the portfolio. The vineyards provide ideal conditions for the winery to grow Burgundy varieties. Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris vines thrive in limestone-studded clay soil and bring full-bodied, well balanced white wines.
The red wine varietals are predominantly planted in sandy soil. Following open mash fermentation, the wines, in particular the elegant Pinot Noirs, are matured for a term of 15 to 18 months in Barrique barrels made from oak of various origins.
