WineSaint

Crushed quartzite and lime zest set the tone immediately, this is Berg Schlossberg doing what it does best. The concentration here is a direct product of 2022's drought stress, packing white peach, citrus pith, and wet stone into a lean, tightly-wound frame. Acidity cuts through with precision, keeping everything vivid and focused. Needs 3–5 years to fully open up.
