2024 Pinot Blanc "Vom Kalkstein" trocken Aaron Kreichgauer Rheinhessen 0,75l

The 2024 Pinot Blanc “Vom Kalkstein” is an elegant Ortswein from Aaron Kreichgauer in Rheinhessen, shaped by the region’s limestone-rich soils. Combining precise fruit, lively freshness and a subtle saline character, it reflects the modern, terroir-focused style of German Weißburgunder. The 2024 vintage is marked by moderate alcohol, clear fruit and excellent freshness, with the finest wines showing notable ageing potential.

Tasting Notes
Pale and bright in appearance, the wine opens with expressive aromas of pear, yellow apple and white peach, complemented by fresh citrus, white flowers and delicate almond notes. A fine limestone minerality adds depth and complexity to the bouquet. On the palate, it is juicy, precise and gently creamy, with well-integrated acidity and a distinctly saline finish. Several months on the fine lees contribute texture and roundness while preserving the wine’s clarity and freshness. Enjoyable now for its vibrant fruit and mineral character, it should also develop additional complexity with short- to medium-term bottle ageing.

Production
The Pinot Blanc comes from limestone-rich vineyards in Rheinhessen, where warm days and cool nights allow the grapes to ripen slowly while retaining freshness. Aaron Kreichgauer works with a nature-conscious approach, low yields and selective hand harvesting to express the character of the soils. After gentle pressing, the grapes undergo temperature-controlled fermentation, followed primarily by several months of ageing in stainless-steel tanks on the fine lees. This process builds creaminess and depth while maintaining the wine’s fresh fruit and mineral precision.

Food & Serving
A versatile food wine, it pairs beautifully with roasted turbot, scallops, veal loin and poultry served with a light sauce. It is also well suited to asparagus dishes, herb-focused vegetarian cuisine, seasonal vegetables and mature Comté. Serve lightly chilled at around 9–11°C. Decanting is not necessary, although allowing the wine to breathe briefly in the glass can reveal more of its aromatic and mineral detail.
