Elbling was one of the most dominant grapes in Germany in medieval times and covered German vineyards all the way into the early 20th century, but has been in deep decline ever since. As far as Stephan Steinmetz is concerned, Elbling is “the voice” of the Upper Mosel. And thanks to his temperamental opposition to chasing trends, Stephan now finds himself perfectly positioned to catch a wave of newfound appreciation for bracingly fresh, bone dry, clean-as-a-whistle wines that lead with minerality rather than alcoholic heft. The Crémant Blanc, a no-dosage brut, sings a high-pitched medley of peach flesh, citrus rind, and enticing yeast notes electrified by Elbling’s signature racy tang.
