Doña Leo 2022

100% Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains; a grape variety with very small berries and tight clusters, golden yellow colour, a little brown at times, with amber tones at the moment of ripening. It resists well to drought & poor soils, with a high potential in sugar with a good balance of acidity & a powerful, intense & delicate flavor. It is one of the oldest varieties of the Mediterranean white grapes & considered as the most aromatic grape variety in the world.

The name for this wine “Doña Leo”comes from Mrs. Leo. She was the owner of a very beautiful vineyard & also the teacher in the little village school; so very well known by everybody in Landete, (the Little village where the winery is located).

Altolandon felt they had to honour the previous owner by naming this wine coming from this beautiful 70 year old single vineyard with her name.

Riesling VINTAGES

VINTAGES is unique and new to the German wine world and is intended to show how much fun, soul and variety there is in combining several vintages that complement each other perfectly. It is a wine that gives a foretaste of where the world of mature Rieslings can lead by combining several vintages, different weather patterns, maturation stages, personal intuition and above all a fusion of aromas. This idea is new, since in Germany and at Dreissigacker as well normally the focus is on vintage-related development in order to bring out the special characteristics of every single vintage. VINTAGES should deliberately deviate from this.

This Riesling shows the mineral freshness of the 2020, the elegance 2019 vintage, has the balance, the rounded and developed style as a strong middle of the 2018 vintage and the fine ripe aromas of a carefully matured wine from the 2017 vintage in the finale. Hand-picked grapes, gentle pressing, cold maceration period up to 8 hours, spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts, fermentation and maturation in stainless steel (80%) and 1200L German oak barrels (20%). Light straw yellow colour with aromas of white flowers, citrus and apple. Palate has great juiciness and fruitiness, well balanced minerality and a superb finish. Certified Organic & vegan.
