✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted by the innovative Johannes Hasselbach of the historic Gunderloch estate, the 'Saveur' Weiss Trocken represents a contemporary, vibrant departure from the winery's traditional, singular focus on Riesling. Grown in the expressive soils of Rheinhessen, this dry white blend typically marries the intensely aromatic, herbaceous qualities of Sauvignon Blanc with the elegant structure and rounder texture of Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc). Fermented entirely in stainless steel to preserve its crisp, lively fruit profile, the wine reflects the modern, dynamic spirit of the region. It offers an approachable yet sophisticated drinking experience, maintaining the precise minerality and balance that has defined Gunderloch for generations.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1890 by banker Carl Gunderloch, Weingut Gunderloch is an esteemed estate located in Nackenheim along the Rhine in Germany's Rheinhessen region. Now meticulously stewarded across generations by the Hasselbach family, the estate is renowned for its historic holdings in the steep, red-slate terraces of the famous Roter Hang, particularly the grand cru Nackenheimer Rothenberg. Practicing attentive, terroir-focused viticulture, the winery crafts exceptional, mineral-driven Rieslings that span crystalline dry single-vineyard bottlings to legendary, long-lived noble sweet dessert wines such as Auslese and Trockenbeerenauslese. Gunderloch remains a benchmark of Rheinhessen winemaking, celebrated globally for its pure fruit expression, tension, and vibrant acidity.
