Weedenborn Sauvignon Blanc Reserve

A Sauvignon Blanc that shows what Rheinhessen can do: no loud gooseberry tones, but depth, spice, and a long finish with substance.

Weingut Weedenborn is located in Flörsheim-Dalsheim in Rheinhessen — a site with calcareous clay soil that gives white wines structure and minerality. The Réserve line stands for selective harvesting and aging with wood contact, which noticeably distinguishes the wine from fresh entry-level wines.

In the glass, a creamy character appears: aromas of vanilla and toffee from the barrel aging, underscored by pome fruit, dried apple slices, and a hint of herbal spice. On the palate, firm body with lively acidity, slight astringency, and a salty minerality in the finish — the wine remains long and shows pastry-like notes in the finale.
