Intensely coloured, fruity reds with a dense purple robe, soft tannins and a generous palate, with aromas of black cherry, blackberry, plum and floral notes. Made as light easy-drinking reds, popular semi-dry cuvées and more structured barrel-aged versions. The second most planted red variety in Germany (Palatinate, Rheinhessen, Württemberg). Cross of helfensteiner × heroldrebe created in 1955 in Weinsberg by August Herold.
Northern Belgian vineyard (~60% of national production), sandy and clay-limestone soils, temperate maritime climate comparable to Champagne 30 years ago. Signature Chardonnay as white king: taut and precise with notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers, brioche and chalky touch — base for fresh and precise sparklers. Aerial Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry), round Pinot Meunier, vibrant Riesling. PIWI (Solaris, Johanniter) as complements.
