On the 22 hectares of family-owned vineyards, white Burgundy varieties, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc grow on calcareous marl and loess-loam soils. Sauvignon Blanc occupies the most space with 35% of the vineyard area, as it is the favorite variety of winemaker Gesine Roll, who took over the winery from her parents almost 10 years ago.

Gesine Roll's Sauvignon Blanc Réserve comes into the glass with a clear, slightly golden-green color. The nose is dominated by opulent, very elegant aromas of citrus fruits, such as lime and tangerine, warm brioche, and noble smoky notes. On the palate, the Sauvignon Blanc Réserve brings richness to the tongue. This, however, is elegant and underlined with exotic tropical fruits such as papaya, mango, tangerine again, passion fruit, and physalis. This is followed by a mineral concentration that is complex but always elegant and smoky-fruit-driven, shining with finesse and revealing a Burgundian impression on the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSauvignon Blanc – a wine and its values\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e13% vol. alcohol content \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.2g\/l residual sugar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7.0 g\/l acidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e95 points James Suckling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e95 points Robert Parker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWine from Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin Rheinhessen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Weingut Weedenborn","offers":[{"title":"750 ml","offer_id":56363715363142,"sku":"007WEE6220","price":34.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4960\/1350\/files\/weedenborn-sauvignon-blanc-reserve-2020_2dfc5671-9beb-4c4b-a6bd-649003ab187c.jpg?v=1776144420"},{"product_id":"weedenborn-chardonnay-sekt-brut-nature-2017","title":"Chardonnay Sparkling Wine Brut Nature – 2017","description":"\u003ch2\u003eChardonnay Brut Nature 2017 – Sparkling Wine from Weedenborn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eWeedenborn Chardonnay Sekt Brut Nature 2017\u003c\/strong\u003e is a radiant golden yellow, finely sparkling Winzersekt made from Chardonnay grapes.

After manual harvesting, the grapes were processed with dry ice to protect the must from oxidation. This is important to Gesine Roll from Weingut Weedenborn for Chardonnay, as the typical Burgundy aromas are highly volatile in contact with oxygen – meaning they are quickly lost. Once the base wine is produced, everything else is done in cooperation with Sekthaus Raumland, which is only about 11 km away. Here, the Chardonnay base wine undergoes the second alcoholic fermentation in traditional bottle fermentation, and the Weedenborn Chardonnay Sekt is created. It has 54 months to mature on the lees, developing aromas and fine perlage. This is how this Weedenborn Sekt becomes a delight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weingut Weedenborn","offers":[{"title":"750 ml","offer_id":56363716149574,"sku":"007WEE9417","price":21.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"6× 750 ml","offer_id":56596686668102,"sku":"007WEE9417_6","price":125.13,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4960\/1350\/files\/weedenborn-chardonnay-sekt-brut-nature-2017_992bde0c-7d03-4ace-aa99-af7bc9ae62e4.jpg?v=1776144430"},{"product_id":"weedenborn-sauvignon-blanc-reserve-2021","title":"Sauvignon Blanc Reserve – 2021","description":"\u003ch2\u003eWeedenborn – Sauvignon Blanc Réserve\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eWeedenborn Sauvignon Blanc Réserve 2021\u003c\/strong\u003e is among the best Sauvignons from German wine regions.

With her Chardonnay Réserve, Gesine Roll impressively demonstrates what can be achieved with this grape variety if one knows how to handle it. For this, Gesine Roll selects the most beautiful and best grapes from the most valuable sites and oldest Chardonnay vineyards, the so-called Golden Cut. Spontaneously fermented, she aged it for 18 months on its full lees in classic French oak barriques, which further concentrates it.

In the global ranking of grape varieties, it confidently holds the 7th position. The Chardonnay grape variety has a great advantage: it is flexible and adaptable, or as it is called in the wine world: it expresses its terroir. It grows in the north as well as in the south, coping with hot summers, although less well than with cool, rainy years. It grows on a wide variety of soils, but it likes limestone, such as that found around Weingut Weedenborn in Monzernheim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay is the number 2 grape variety in Gesine Roll's list of favorite grapes. Gesine Roll harvests the Chardonnay grapes early enough, processes them carefully and gently, allows the grapes to ferment spontaneously, puts a portion through malolactic fermentation, and gives the must plenty of time to mature on the lees. She skillfully plays with used barrels of different sizes. This results in a high-quality, cool wine with good structure and great development potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Here, too, minerality is central. Delicate yellow fruit, refined floral components, tart elderflower – this could well be a great Burgundy with its proverbial mineral depth. Juicy, flavorful palate, well-dosed, perfectly integrated barrique, fine breed, the wine glides like a feather over the tongue, but is laden with heavenly aromas; noble simplicity lends additional charm, sublime, varied finish,” describes Max Gerstl of Gerstl Weinselektionen about this wine from Weingut Weedenborn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eChardonnay Réserve – A Wine and Its Values\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e13% vol. alcohol content\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.2 g\/l residual sugar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6.8 g\/l acidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e94 points James Suckling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e94 points Robert Parker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Weingut Weedenborn","offers":[{"title":"750 ml","offer_id":56363778507078,"sku":"007WEE1717","price":37.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"6× 750 ml","offer_id":56596686766406,"sku":"007WEE1717_6","price":215.34,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4960\/1350\/files\/weedenborn-chardonnay-reserve-2020_a80086d0-233c-4fae-888e-c1de6ab9b511.jpg?v=1776145041"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4960\/1350\/collections\/weedenborn-logo.png?v=1775845210","url":"https:\/\/genussland.de\/en\/collections\/weingut-weedenborn.oembed","provider":"genussland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
