Additional Information

22% Bacchus (direct press), 57% Müller-Thurgau (partly skin fermented for about a week, partly direct press) 21% Silvaner (partly skin fermented for about a week, partly direct press) For the second Vater & Sohn blend of its kind it’s the same three varieties coming together as we have in the Drei Freunde cuvée: Müller-Thurgau, Bacchus and Silvaner. Just with a lot less skin contact. One part of the Müller-Thurgau and the Silvaner was on the skins for about a week bringing some herbal flavors to the game. And with 2019 not being a blockbuster year for Bacchus (sunburn, heat damage) its contribution of exotic flavors is smaller than it was for the previous vintage. Pretty, lifted, and fresh.
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.
