Description

A Scheurebe with a twist- crushed rocks on the nose with some clove and grapefruit zest, plus a floral note of spring daisies, very complex and gets a real boost with aeration. Slightly more structure and muscle compared to your average Scheurebe but rounded off with some delicate pear drop. Really showcases the chalky soil and finished with a firework of pear, sweet mango. Unfiltered and unfined this is a Natty example of a grape with so much potential.

Katharina is one of many shining lights of a new generation of winemakers that cement Rheinhessen's reputation as a serious wine region for extraordinary quality. Following a Media career she decided in her 30’s to leave Berlin to start training as a winemaker, for which she also spent some significant time with Klaus Peter Keller. Back in 2012 she then took over the family estate in Westhofen and never looked back. Since then she has continuously improved quality and is currently in the process of converting to fully organic while also practicing biodynamics in her vineyards. The estate covers about 17ha with south facing vineyards and an average vine age of 50+ years.
