Hand-picked and hand-selected grapes. Gentle pressing followed by wild-yeast fermentation. Maturation on the fine lees for 2 years.
Made the old-school way, fermented off-dry with a slight touch of residual sweetness. Tremendous substance, intensity, energy and balance. We highly recommend this exceptional terroir-driven wine.
'Himmelreich' is German for kingdom of heaven – and this vineyard's sunny aspect is distinctly divine. Soils with high clay content lend the wines a strikingly assertive character. Thanks to the prevailing topography, the vines are sheltered from wind and frost. This quick-warming terroir helps the grapes to ripen evenly and fully. Numerous veins of underground moisture provide the vines with an ideal source of water.
