{"title":"Leon Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eLeon Gold founded Weingut Leon Gold in 2015 in the Remstal, the side valley of the Rems River east of Stuttgart. He is a first-generation winemaker. After early work stints in the Bottwartal and Remstal, an encounter at a biodynamic winery in the South Palatinate shaped his approach to farming. He trained as a Technician for Viticulture and Oenology at the State Teaching and Research Institute in Weinsberg before returning to the Remstal to establish his own estate on the old steep slopes of Gundelach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe estate has practiced organic methods from its first vintage. In 2016, Leon converted both the vineyard and cellar to biodynamic practices. He follows biological cycles and moon phases, uses specially prepared compost instead of synthetic agents, and manages the land with a focus on biodiversity. His vines stand on layers of gypsum keuper, red sandstone, Bunte marl, and pebble sandstone — a diverse Keuper soil profile that is reflected in the textural complexity of his wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the cellar, Leon relies on indigenous yeasts for spontaneous fermentation with no additions. The Pink Gold pét-nat is made via méthode ancestrale: the wine is pressed into stainless steel and sealed in bottle before fermentation is complete, allowing natural carbonation to develop. No fining, filtration, or sulfur is added. The Pink Gold is produced as an exclusive collaboration with Super Glou, the US-based natural wine importer and distributor.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"super-glou-pink-gold-pet-nat-leon-gold-natural-wine","title":"Super Glou Pink Gold Pét-Nat  2020","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn exclusive collaboration between US importer Super Glou and Weingut Leon Gold, this pét-nat is made from 100% Trollinger grown on 45-year-old vines in the Remstal subregion of Württemberg, southwestern Germany. The estate sits on the old steep slopes of Gundelach, where soils layer gypsum keuper, red sandstone, Bunte marl, and pebble sandstone.
