70% Dornfelder, 30% Chardonnay - 11.5% abv
Illustration by Lilly Winter.
On the 10th of September 2023 we hand picked the Dornfelder grapes from our vineyard in Kühhimmel, Rheinhessen. On the 20th of September we picked the Chardonnay from Eckelsheim. 20 year old vines on clay and limestone soil, farmed organically.
Dornfelder directly pressed, Chardonnay 7 days maceration. Whole bunches. Fermented separately and blended before bottling. Aged 8 months in old oak barrels.
The Dornfelder brings red fruit flavours like cranberries with a lot of energy behind it, whilst the Chardonnay levels out the mouthfeel and creates freshness and acidity.
Best served white wine chilled.
