Marcel Deiss La Colline Rouge

Vintage: 2020
Description: Marcel Deiss is a leading biodynamic practitione. The La Colline Rouge is made of a co-plantation of Riesling and Pinot Gris from the Rotenberg vineyard. The words written on the back of the bottle explains everything: The red slope, a magnificent vineyard planted on limestone outcrop sloping gently to the southeast, Rotenberg is like a sentry dutifully watching over the plain below and it is the earliest ripening terrior of Bergheim. Its red soils are marked by iron and deep chalky fissures, and the ideal, sunny climate allows the co-planting of two grape varieties to shine, less crystalline perhaps than nearby Grasberg, but equally fine and elegant. Rotenberg wines are easy to drink in their youth, fresh and light-bodied, with a lemon-tinged quality, and its flavors pair well with the most noble fish dishes, casting them in a brilliant, almost geological light.
