STORY: When we visit Uli Metzger at his winery, we can be sure: we will eat well, drink well, sleep well and at least take his new wine home with us for our range. This time we had two in our luggage. The drops, cut exclusively for us, are real fillet pieces from Uli's best locations with its oldest vines.
-
VINIFICATION: The drops cut exclusively for us are real fillet pieces from Uli's best locations with its oldest vines. Due to the selective hand-picking, the yield is relatively low, but the variety of aromas and finesse is all the higher. Aged for six months on the fine lees in old French oak barrels, the Pinot Blanc captivates with a fruity nose dominated by buttered pear and roasted nuts.
-
AROMA: Nutty notes in the bouquet, a hint of bread and buttered pear. This wine shows that Pinot Blanc has character and self-confidence!
-
RATING: Clear and differentiated on the palate, yet playful and with a charming fullness. Mouth-filling and with juicy fullness, it draws mineral paths over the palate. Buttery yellow notes balance and add complexity and a creamy mouthfeel to the wine.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Veal, seafood and lobster with sauce, guinea fowl
When we visit Uli Metzger at his winery, we can be sure: we will eat well, drink well, sleep well and at least take his new wine home with us for our range. This time we had two in our luggage. The drops, cut exclusively for us, are real fillet pieces from Uli's best locations with its oldest vines. Due to the selective hand-picking, the yield is relatively low, but the variety of aromas and finesse is all the higher. Aged for six months on the fine lees in old French oak barrels, the Pinot Blanc captivates with a fruity nose dominated by buttered pear and roasted nuts. It has a juicy mouthfeel dominated by plums and a dense, never-ending aftertaste. The Pinot Noir is cold macerated for eight days. This is followed by mash fermentation until it is finally allowed to mature in barriques for 18 months. He lies deep dark in the glass, exudes aromas of blackcurrant, chocolate and mineral rock. On the palate it shows off its full fruitiness, rounded off by well-integrated tannins. You can only find quality like this from your trusted butcher.
