What a special wine this white wine, made from a red grape, is! Yes, you read that right: it's made from Spatburgunder grapes from Germany's most beautiful wine region, the Mosel. The big name behind this white wine is Weinhaus Gebruder Steffen, located in Trittenheim, a village in the Mosel. Founder Steffen Schmitt has a long history, and his winemaking expertise has been passed down through the family line. Today, they still produce their renowned wines, but they are also considered pioneers. With the arrival of this white Mrs. White Blanc de Noir, a new star has been born.
White wine from a red grape
A white wine made from a red grape, unique! This is why this Mrs. White has earned the name Blanc de Noir and is made from the oldest vines of the Spatburgunder grape. It grows in a perfect climate with plenty of sunshine, the influence of the river breeze, and the coolness of the night. This allows the Spatburgunder to grow exceptionally large and develop a unique character. All bunches are harvested by hand and transported in small crates to Weinhaus Gebruder Steffen. Here, the red grapes are pressed directly without contact with the skins, resulting in a white wine.
The scent and taste of Mrs. White
In the glass, it's clear with a faint red glow. But that's only natural, as you can imagine. Nosing the glass, we noted impressions of green apple, lemon, and a hint of green herbs. This beautiful, elegant aroma continues on the palate. The palate is teased by hints of white fruit, citrus notes, and nuances of green pepper and preserved lemon. What a delicious glass, and it truly leaves us feeling thirst-quenching.
