Additional Information

old oak (Domina), stainless steel (Regent). 2020 was a terrible year of frost with just some of the Domina surviving the devastating night in May. As a result we had to do a couple of things differently. The remaining grapes were stomped and pressed after an hour to ferment and age in old oak. We added some directly pressed Regent, aged it in stainless steel and blended it with the Domina. The Regent of course changes the character of Black Betty. The blend is more fruity and punchy than the predecessors but dangerously drinkable. The wine is named after the first lamb that was born in our Domina vineyard: Betty. Who is – as most of the Ouessant sheep – black.
something

Our urban winery was founded in 1843 in the northern part of Bavaria on the River Main. Since 2012 we have turned it upside down: all of our 6ha are farmed organically and we’ve put a lot of effort in the soil which we understand to be a living being with desires and aversions. Living soil allows for doing less and is home to healthy plants producing the grapes for our wines. Although we don’t add or take away anything grapes don’t become wine by themselves and there are many decisions to make from harvest to bottling. Making these decisions we follow our ideas of a perfect wine while accepting the individuality and personality of each vineyard and wine. We aim to produce lively and energetic wines which come from a healthy soil and benefit from the diversity around them.
