"The exceptional balance achieved with the 2007 vintage of Clean Slate can be attributed to a record-breaking ripening period. Mild weather in March along with warm temperatures in April and May enabled early bud break and the earliest flowering in the history of the Mosel. Cool summer conditions and dry autumn weather resulted in an unusually long hang time for the grapes and ideal harvest conditions. The resulting wine is aromatic with a refined acidity and outstanding balance. Refreshing taste profile with peach aromas, lime notes, lively acidity and a hint of mineral and spice." Winery Website
