Johannisberg, Andreas Bolliger - 2023

Provenance: Valais
Appellation: Valais
Domain: Andreas Bolliger
Grape variety(ies): Johannisberg
Alcohol degree: 13.2%

A Johannisberg that's off the beaten track! On the nose, delicate aromas of white flowers and a subtle touch of bitter almond. On the palate, it's fresh and taut, with a fine harmony of acidity and minerality. This dry wine stands out for its lightness and a hint of bitterness on the finish, giving it a lively, original character. No excessive roundness here, just an elegant, well-structured Johannisberg that plays on finesse rather than opulence.

Technique

Viticulture

The Johannisberg is planted in fixed rows on terraces. The parcel is situated at an altitude of around 700 metres in the Kumme (Combe) of the commune of Raron, facing south-south-east. The soil in the lower part of the Kumme in Raron consists of sedimentary deposits. It is predominantly sandy and moderately calcareous, with a predominance of fine sand (over 60%), followed by silt (around 30%), with the remainder being clay. The silt contains quartz, mica, iron oxides and clay.

Oenology

The grapes are not destemmed and are pressed immediately. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats, using selected yeasts for a low-temperature fermentation. The wine is aged on fine lees in stainless steel tanks for 6 to 7 months, without malolactic fermentation. Before bottling, the wine is clarified and filtered.
