✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted as a sparkling de-alcoholized wine, this Blanc de Blancs cuvée utilizes white grape varieties vinified via temperature-controlled stainless steel fermentation before undergoing gentle vacuum distillation. This low-temperature extraction evaporates ethanol under low pressure (roughly 27–30°C) to preserve fragile primary aromatics and crisp organic acids without thermal degradation. The base wine is subsequently carbonated to deliver a fine mousse, balancing residual sweetness against vivid malic-tartaric spine.
🍾 About the Producer
Weingut Leitz traces its familial viticultural ancestry back to 1744, though its modern renaissance commenced in 1985 when Johannes Leitz assumed control of the war-ravaged, 2.9-hectare family estate in Rüdesheim am Rhein. Through meticulous parcel acquisition and restoration of steep, historic slate and quartzite terraces, Leitz transformed the domaine into a premier Rheingau reference point. The estate's premier holdings encompass celebrated VDP.Grosse Lagen crus on the dramatic south-facing slopes of the Rüdesheimer Berg, including Berg Schlossberg, Berg Roseneck, Berg Kaisersteinfels, and Berg Rottland Hinterhaus. Farming is conducted sustainably under FAIR'N GREEN certification, employing green cover crops, pomace composting, and manual slope work. Cellar practices combine spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel and neutral Stückfass casks, yielding dry Rieslings characterized by crystalline minerality, razor-sharp tension, and phenolic depth, alongside innovative benchmarks such as the non-alcoholic Eins Zwei Zero portfolio.
