2019 Franz Keller Weissburgunder Im Leh Oberbergen Grosses Gewächs

With the Franz Keller Weissburgunder Im Leh Oberbergen Grosses Gewächs it seems as if clear gold (yellow) juice flows from the bottle. This Weisburgunder or Pinot Blanc Grosses Gewachts stimulates your senses with its fruity notes. A great yet complex wine with notes of quince with apricot and tropical papaya which stands out first but then the subtle notes come in with grapefruit and vanilla. Medium to full bodied, the wine is plump and indulgent with tantalizing acidity with lively fruit to indulge the palate in style. The aftertaste remains impressive.

All vineyards of winery Franz Keller are located in the German Kaiserstuhl region, which is located in the Baden wine region. Keller is a specialist in 'Burgundersorten', so the Pinots and Chardonnay. Especially the Spätburgunders (sometimes called Pinot Noir because they work with clones from Burgundy) enjoy great international renown. Last year Magda van der Rijst considered it her 'favorite producer of Spätburgunder from all over Germany', this year Lars Daniëls will once again put a wine from Keller in his shortlist during the Grosse Gewächse tasting in Wiesbaden.

The Kaiserstuhl is the warmest and sunniest wine region in Germany and is characterized by volcanic soils covered with fertile high loess deposits that provide excellent wine-growing conditions for what in Germany they call the Burgundersorts such as Weissburgunder, Grauburgunder, Chardonnay and Spätburgunder. Winery Keller has really beautifully situated vineyards. At Keller, only the best, carefully selected grapes from the best vineyards and parcels are used: Schlossberg, Kirchberg, Eichberg, "Im Leh" and "Kähner". These wines mature in their best barrels and each has a unique character, potential and finesse - truly unique grand crus!
