Parker about Sauvignon Blanc Réserve Magnum 2020
From the upper plots at 265 meters of altitude and cultivated on limestone soils, the 2020 Sauvignon Blanc Réserve is a selection of the most beautiful yet not necessarily most concentrated fruit. Vinified in 500-liter oak barrels, this is a full-bodied, refined, lush and elegant Sauvignon with intense yellow plum aromas and the richness, juiciness and elegance of a white Graves. The finish is tight, intense and rich, sweet and powerful but structured by fine oak tannins and a long, saline finish. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in July 2022.

Suckling over Sauvignon Blanc Réserve Magnum 2020
What a delicate smoky nose this concentrated and finely etched sauvignon blanc has. Great chalky minerality on the highly structured palate. So much power and drive at the very long, crisp finish where you only feel a touch of oak. From a high-altitude vineyard with limestone soil, mostly vinified in 500 liter oak casks. Drink or hold.

Sauvignon Blanc Réserve Magnum 2020

Alongside the Sauvignon Blanc Terra Rossa, which is now undisputedly one of the best Sauvignons in Germany, the Réserve appears even more concentrated thanks to its extended aging in wooden barrels. The Sauvignon Blanc Réserve is essentially a "golden cut."
In the style of great Burgundy wines, the Réserve is stylishly oaked, yet refined and elegant. Nevertheless, the wine offers plenty of power, yellow fruit notes, smoothness on the palate, and a firm structure and tension.
Origin
These grapes are the most beautiful and best grapes from the most valuable locations and oldest Sauvignon Blanc vineyards.
Expansion
Our Réserve was fermented spontaneously and aged on the full lees for 18 months in new wood (French oak).
