Weingut Kranz Ilbesheim vom Landschneckenkalk Riesling Ortswein Bio 2021

This riesling is aromatic with scents of yellow fruit and hints of pineapple. It has an elegant freshness with a chalky minerality on the finish. The wine is harmonious, aromatic and seductive.

The grapes come from a soil with terrestrial limestone combined with marl and loam. After the manual harvest, the grapes are very selectively selected and gently crushed to obtain the best possible finesse, freshness and tension. Without maceration, the grapes are pressed and fermented with natural yeasts. The wine matures in stainless steel.

  • About Weingut Kranz

    From a traditional "mixed farm," the company developed into a full-fledged wine company after World War II under the leadership of the grandparents of the current generation.

    With great care, the plantings were cared for with an emphatic focus on the type of soil in relation to the grape variety. Boris Kranz has been working organically for years, banning any form of chemical agents in the vineyard or cellar. Pinot blanc, riesling, chardonnay and pinot noir are the only grapes used.

    Harvesting is done by hand and a strict selection of grapes follows in the vineyard and cellar. The grapes are only lightly crushed and substantially pressed without soaking. The juice is allowed to settle for a while after which the wine ferments with natural yeasts. The effect is a series of wines with great finesse, purity and gossamer acid, which is also beautifully incorporated into the wine.
