Elbling is Europes oldest indigenous vine variety, however, here in Germany the best plots were ripped out so serve its noble relative Riesling.  However, these is a small .15ha plot of Elbling on limestone Matthias Hild looks at has his pride and joy.  These old vines produce an electric white wine full of vivacious acidity and citrus notes.  At 11.5% abv, this is your perfect summer apertivo.
