Method

Sustainable

Very slightly off-dry but It maintains its refreshing nature with that typical Riesling crisp acidity.

About the wine

Very slightly off-dry (although it hardly tastes it!) as the grapes are picked slightly later than usual.

This Riesling is crafted from a blend of grapes sourced from the estate's single vineyards, often harvested at late or even selective harvest ripeness levels. The wine is spontaneously fermented in stainless steel tanks and partially in large wooden barrels, then promptly bottled to preserve its fruitiness and freshness, allowing further maturation in the estate's double-story wine cellar.

Tasting notes

On the nose, this Riesling presents aromas of ripe stone fruits, citrus, and slate-like minerality, accompanied by subtle nuances of honeycomb. The palate reveals a delicate residual sweetness, harmoniously integrated with lively acidity, leading to a refreshing and well-balanced finish.

About the winemaker

Never have we been blown away so quickly with the quality of a new producer! Annelena, and her 26 year old winemaker brother Felix Heimes are the dynamic duo making the magic happen.

Produced on 12 hectares of some of the steepest slopes in the wine world, so everything is done by hand (far too steep for those poor old tractors!). Originally planted way back in 1898 by Maria Puricelli who also helped to build the original estate, the Heimes family now own this amazing, sustainable, winery, and keep getting better year after year.
