Wittmann Winery – Organic Rosé from Rheinhessen
The Wittmann Rosé 2023 from Wittmann Winery in Rheinhessen impresses with its fruity lightness and enormous drinkability. The 2023 Wittmann Rosé Estate wine is a wonderfully juicy, dry organic rosé wine made from Pinot Noir and St. Laurent grapes. Like all Wittmann wines, it is clear and precise, elegant, and characterized by a fine minerality. Its fruity, fresh bouquet is reminiscent of red berries; balanced and juicy, it exudes great drinking pleasure. The youthful, well-integrated acidity leads to a long, herbaceous finish. The summer rosé for barbecue!
Rosé – VDP.GUTSWEIN (Estate Wine)
Estate wines are the calling card of the winery, which is why elegance and a fine expression of origin are particularly important to us in these wines. The grapes come from the winery's own vineyards, which are farmed biodynamically and meticulously cared for by hand. They are ideal food companions, and not just in their first year.
Wittmann Winery – how wine is made
The Pinot Noir and St. Laurent grapes for this rosé grow on the gentle hills around the Wittmann Winery in Westhofen, Rheinhessen. The vineyards are cultivated biodynamically, which means not only refraining from chemical-synthetic agents, but above all activating soil life and paying close attention during daily walks through the rows of vines. "Every contact is a dialogue," Philipp Wittmann sums it up perfectly. This means intensive vineyard care throughout the year, low yields, and consistent manual selection of the grapes form the basis for high wine quality.
After manual harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed, and the must is guided into the cellar by gravity alone, without pumping. There, it has time to spontaneously ferment in traditional wooden barrels and remains on the fine lees for a long time, which gives the wine structure. In the end, much tasting and blending takes place, because each wooden barrel contains only the must from a few rows of vines, until the perfect balance is found. Winemaking is a matter of the mind with heart.
