2024 Weingut Knewitz Appenheim Riesling Trocken Rheinhessen, Germany
$45.00
The grapes originate from young and medium-aged vines planted in the best sites of Appenheim. One part is grown in the Appenheimer Hundertgulden, complemented by a defining parcel in the Appenheimer Eselspfad. All vineyards are situated on the mid-to-upper part of the slopes, where limestone and exposure shape precision and tension.
VINEYARD
Certified organic farming DE-ÖKO-039. In the vineyard, we ensure a perfect equilibrium between vine and soil.
We work in dialogue with nature: Our own compost, gentle soil care and plenty of manual labor, such as targeted shoot reduction and selective defoliation shortly before the harvest.
VINIFICATION
Selective handpicking from mid-September to mid-October 2023. Short maceration, gentle pressing. Spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts, 50% in a stainless steel tank and 50% in a traditional wooden barrel. Filling: July 2025.
