For the winemakers, 2016 was a year with mixed emotions. The extreme and contrasting weather conditions presented many challenges. The protection of the vines during the summer was particularly difficult and required constant attention and rapid action. In late summer, we were finally rewarded with dry, sunny weather which allowed for good grape development along with a rapid increase in mass. The patience required to let the grapes mature fully on the vine paid off and we are delighted with a high quality harvest with aromatic grapes and are expecting rich wines as a result.
Name of vineyard: Jesuitengarten - situated next to the Rhine. A composition of sandy clay soil, pebble and sand inclusions. South-southwest exposure
The favorable microclimate of this warmest vineyard in the Rheingau region guarantees optimal grape ripening each year. Gentle and individual treatment of the wine allos the aromas and flavors specific for each year to come into their own.
