The Schäfer-Fröhlich Estate is a renowned family-owned vineyard located in the picturesque region of Nahe, Germany. It spans approximately 16 hectares of vineyards, encompassing a variety of typical German grape varieties, including Riesling, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Gris. The vineyards are scattered across a series of steep sites, offering panoramic views of the surrounding hilly landscape. This vineyard has long been a bastion of viticultural excellence in Germany, enjoying a well-established reputation for its high-quality wines. Its success and popularity can be attributed to a combination of traditional and modern viticultural philosophies, exceptional terroir typicity, and an unrelenting focus on quality. The vineyard is known for its volcanic and shale soils, which add a distinct mineral complexity to its wines. This soil typicity is perfectly expressed in their Rieslings, which are recognized for their freshness, sharp acidity, and aromatic finesse. The Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris, although lesser known, are also highly regarded for their purity and balance. At the Schäfer-Fröhlich Estate, each plot is hand-tended, with particular attention paid to each vine. This patient and meticulous approach results in minimal handling of the grapes, thereby ensuring an authentic expression of the terroir character in every bottle. The estate's winemaking cellar follows both traditional and innovative winemaking methods. The grapes are gently pressed and the must is fermented in old oak barrels, thereby preserving the natural flavors of the fruit.
