Loess

Fine wind-blown dust from the ice age. Deep and warm — it makes wines broad, creamy and easy to like.

Loess is dust the wind laid down here over thousands of years: chalky, fine-grained, metres deep. It holds warmth and water, and gives both back readily.

Wines from loess need no time to open up. They are round, fruity and creamy even when young — the soil for wines you want to drink rather than study.
