Vineyard notes: "Clos Sainte Hune is a 1,67 hectares exceptional stony argilo-calcaire, or Muschelkalk, limestone terroir, exclusively planted in Riesling, located in the heart of Grand Cru Rosacker, in Hunawihr. ? The calcary soil allows this Riesling to develop a specific aroma and a wonderful concentration of fruits. Dry yet succulent, of phenomenal complexity, this wine develops an extraordinary aftertaste of minerals after a few years in bottle. The plot, which is approximately 50 to 70 years old, is south south east exposed and the yields are low."

- Winemaking
-
We pick the grapes as late as possible in order to achieve maximum ripeness which, in turn, gives optimum depth of flavour and complexity. The grapes are picked by hand and pressed gently in a pneumatic press. The juice runs into the cellar by gravity and clarifies naturally prior fermentation. The juice ferment in stainless steel at controlled temperature for 3 or 4 weeks. The wine is vinified to complete dryness. No malolactic fermentation.

- Ageing
-
Wines are bottle-aged for several years before leaving the winery, especially CSH, for minimum 6 years.

2009 Vintage
Tasted: Mar 2017
Helles Gelbgrün, Silberreflexe. Dunkle Mineralität, zart nach weißer Tropenfrucht und Anklänge von Blutorangen. Straffe Textur, salzig, Nuancen von weißer Birne, öffnet sich langsam, sehr klare Textur, finessenreich strukturiert, zitronige Nuancen im Abgang, ein sehr vielversprechender Wein mit großem Reifepotenzial, das an fünfzig ÂJahre spielend heranreichen wird.
