Vineyard Site
Ried Seeberg, located north of Langenlois, is a south- to southwest-facing terraced site at 220–300 meters elevation. The topsoil consists of calcareous-free rocky brown earths, underlain by silvery mica schist and amphibolite, which lend the wines their characteristic minerality and fine structure. The name Seeberg, historically recorded as “See Berg,” refers to a hill with a small pond; originally, the vineyards were concentrated along the ridge and in the eastern part of the site.

Wine Description

Bright yellow-green with cool reflections, showing delicate aromas of peach and citrus, complemented by exotic hints and fresh herbs. On the palate taut and juicy, with clear minerality, lively acidity, and a saline finish. Elegant and precise, with excellent drinkability.

Food Pairing

A great match for aromatic, spiced dishes where its subtle sweetness provides balance. Particularly well suited to Asian or Indian cuisine, as well as dishes with sweet-and-sour elements.
