Reinhold was in the vineyards tending his unyielding crop and hoping for a miracle. Suddenly, a lightning bolt shot down from the storm clouds above and struck the young winemaker. When he awoke, Reinhold saw that the once shrivelled grapes were luscious and full and the birds he had considered a pest appeared to be guarding the vines. He knew that his sole purpose was to harness this new energy that was inside him, to create the very best Riesling in all the land... so he did. Centuries later the descendants of Reinhold continue to produce a superior Riesling that is as zesty as it is rich, with intense honey-fruit aromas and a crisp citrus edge.

History: Reinhold was in the vineyards tending his unyielding crop and hoping for a miracle. Suddenly, a lightning bolt shot down from the storm clouds above and struck the young winemaker. When he awoke, Reinhold saw that the once shrivelled grapes were luscious and full and the birds he had considered a pest appeared to be guarding the vines. He knew that his sole purpose was to harness this new energy that was inside him, to create the very best Riesling in all the land … so he did.
Regional information: Riesling is the most widely planted grape in the Pfalz, one of Germany's most important regions. The nearby forested Haardt Mountains are responsible for the region producing wines which are richer and riper than other areas in Germany.
Vinification: Grapes are machine-harvested in September and then fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks at 14°C. Following 4 months of lees contact, the wine undergoes cross flow filtration.
