More about this product
Weingut Wittmann
From 1663, the Wittmann family and their ancestors were grape growers in the town of Westhofen, Rheinhessen. Today, Philipp Wittmann runs the estate, along with his parents and wife. Riesling is mainly grown, traditional for the region around the town of Westhofen with mostly marble-limestone soils. Two types of Pinot are also popular - Blanc and Gris - and Silvaner. Grapes have been grown organically for over 20 years. A lot of manual labor and skills lead only the best grains in the winery. The must is fermented naturally in wooden barrels. The slow fermentation and maturation deep in the cellars, at constantly low temperature and high humidity, preserves the natural aromas. Their best wines bear the names of the plots from which they come.

Rheinhessen
The Rhinehessen region is essential for the German wine industry and is home to almost a quarter of the country's vineyards; it is also the largest in terms of wine production. Rhinehessen is a relatively warm and dry region, protected from adverse climatic influences by mountain ranges such as Hunsrück and Taunus. Most of the vineyards are planted on the warm and fertile soils of the valley, which are ideal for growing ripe and healthy grapes, and with a reputation as a traditional source of exceptionally high-quality wines, the famous Rheinterrasse - a section of steep vineyards along the western bank of the Rhine River around the towns of Nierstein and Oppenheim - is well-known. White varieties dominate in Rhinehessen, with Riesling playing a leading role, followed by Müller-Thurgau, and significant areas of the vineyards are also allocated to Silvaner, Grauer Burgunder (Pinot Gris), and Weißer Burgunder (Pinot Blanc). Among the red varieties, Dornfelder is the leader, with almost double the acreage of the more familiar and beloved Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir).
