Crafted by the pioneering Heymann-Lowenstein estate founded by Reinhard and Cornelia Lowenstein and now guided by the next generation under Sarah Lowenstein — this wine is a pure expression of the blue-grey Devon slate that gives the site its name. The vines, many up to 60 years old and ungrafted, cling to breathtakingly steep slopes with gradients of up to 170%, yielding tiny quantities of intensely concentrated fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 Blaufusser Lay opens with its hallmark cool cassis-mint character, interwoven with bergamot, sage and subtle smoky-mineral nuances. On the palate, the wine feels almost weightless, carried by bright citrus and flint notes with cool herbs and wet stone. The acidity is piquant and lively, with a fine salinity underneath, while the finish extends with chalky tannin structure and lingering mineral tension. This is a wine of remarkable poise and depth that will reward patient cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFermented spontaneously and aged for a minimum of ten months on lees in large oak, the Blaufusser Lay embodies Reinhard Lowenstein's uncompromising terroir philosophy where ancient slate is sublimated through the vine into the glass.
