Morgenstern Black Label is the spiritual big brother of Wongraven Morgenstern Riesling. Black Label is a blend across vineyards at the very top of the quality hierarchy in the Pfalz region. Unfortunately we are not able to name these vineyards in writing due to restrictions relating to German wine laws. All vinifications are by spontaneous fermentation using natural yeast from sustainably farmed vineyards in Forst and Deidesheim in the Pfalz region of Germany. Cultivated and vinified by Von Winning, blended by Sigurd Wongraven. 500 75cl bottles made.
