ABOUT THE PRODUCER: "Germany's largest wine-growing region (26,500 hectares) was a wallflower for a long time, considered more a provenance of nameless branded wines (Liebfrauenmilch, Blue Nun, Black Tower) than a provenance of individualistic top wines. However, a young generation of winemakers has been digging up the treasure that lies dormant in Rheinhessen's soils for about 20 years. Whether limestone (as around Westhofen and Flörsheim-Dalsheim), red clay slate from the Rotliegende (as around Nierstein and Nackenheim), slate (Bingen) or porphyry (Siefersheim) - Rheinhessen is a land full of varied terroir and wines worth discovering. Qualitatively, Riesling clearly plays the most important role, even though only slightly more than 16 percent of the vineyards are planted with it." Falstaff Magazin
Stefan started making wine at just 16, and now is responsible for the family's 20ha of vineyards, predominantly on calcareous soils around Dittelsheim. Since 2004, he has been a member of the dynamic Rhineland-based winegrowing association 'Message in a Bottle' and an active member of the German Weinelf. - COUNTRY: Germany
