Weegmüller (WeinManufaktur Steinbock) 2023 Cuvee 3 S
When Steffi and Gaby ran Weegmüller, the first wine to sell out each year was called “3 Schwestern” or “3 Sisters” – a field blend in a vineyard belonging to their grandmother. To be frank, we never bought it, delicious though it always was, because the label was so particularly suited to the German market that we didn’t think it would fly in California. Now, however, in the striking new Steinbock package, we have no reservations about offering you this lip-smacking, off-dry spicy beauty. We think you will love it.

Notes from the Producer: Cuvée of white wine: from the 3 favourite grape varieties of the sisters:
Pinot Gris, Scheurebe & Pinot Blanc.
In the aroma the wine reminds of white blossoms, in the taste strong, yellow fruits, a spicy note. Lively sweetness/acidity interplay
The cuvée goes perfectly with summer cuisine, salads with short roasted white meat, fish or poultry. A wonderfully uncomplicated drinking pleasure!
