White Burgundy shell limestone

Pinot Blanc on shell limestone – that is a combination that stands for structure and mineral depth. Lergenmüller from the Palatinate brings exactly that into the bottle.

The Lergenmüller winery is one of the established addresses in the southern Palatinate, a region where shell limestone soils give Pinot Blanc a characteristic straightforwardness. The chalky rock soils promote fine minerality and keep the acidity lively – even in warm Palatinate vintages.

In the glass, the wine shows aromas of white peach and pear, plus a subtle nuttiness, as is typical for Pinot Blanc on calcareous ground. The palate is medium-weight, the acidity present without being angular, the finish dry and pleasantly long.
