We founded the winery in 2016 with the return of our family vineyards. Our vineyards were
previously managed by a fellow winemaker. With the first vintage of 2017 we started with small
quantities of natural wine. After the first small experiments of the organic way of working and aging
without filtration and sulfurization of the wines, we decided in 2020 to market our entire vineyard
area independently and to manage our vineyards completely organically.
For us, this means that we carry out only the most necessary work in the vineyard to restore the soil
life. Of course, our grapes are harvested by hand. We are not friends of maceration, so almost all
our white grapes are pressed directly after the harvest to start fermentation in old large wooden
barrels. The wines mature until they are bottled the following year (bottling in August). The red
grapes and a few isolated white varieties are fermented for 7 days without air contact through a
maceration carbonique. The remaining fermentation also takes place after pressing in old large
wooden barrels.
Our style is very clear, fruity and acidic due to this method of aging. We try not to harvest the grapes
too ripe to preserve the acidity and have low alcohol levels. This is very important to us! Also we try
to bottle our wines without sulfur. But if we are not sure if it works without sulfur, we add small
amounts of sulfur (10-15 mg/l).
In addition to the classic German grape varieties such as Müller Thurgau and Portugieser, we
naturally also have Pinot Noir and Riesling on offer. This year we have also planted resistant varieties
to be able to completely dispense with pesticides. We are already very excited about how these
grapes will taste.
We use only our own grapes for our wines because we can ensure how the grapes are treated. In
total we cultivate 2.5 hectares of vineyards.
For us a perfect size to be able to do all the work ourselves.
We are still a long way from how we imagine the vineyards with species-rich greenery and healthy
soils. We still need some time for this, but we are on the right track!
- Size of their farm: 2.5 (ha)
- Size of farm under vine: 2.5 (ha)
- All grapes are dry-farmed. None of the vineyards are irrigated.
- All grapes are harvested manually.
