Located in the picturesque landscape of Wairarapa region in New Zealand, Schubert Estate is a potential legendary wine destination. This renowned estate came to life when Germans Kai Schubert and Marion Deimling, graduates in viticulture and oenology from the famous Geisenheim University, fell in love with the area during their exploratory travels around the world. They settled here and founded Schubert Estate in 1998. The estate is nestled within Martinborough's Terroir wine appellation which translates to "microclimate", referring to the unique influence the immediate environment has on the wine produced there. This part of New Zealand is beneficent for wine growing due to its long warm summers, cool nights, and mild winters, with limestone clay soils adding to the complexity of their wines. Among the carefully cultivated vines of Schubert Estate, pinot noir is king, representing the bulk of their production. The wines here are elegant, with notes of ripe cherry, nuances of violet, and a silky finish. They also grow syrah, pinot blanc and sauvignon blanc, all offering an unforgettable taste. Kai and Marion's love for wine and their dedication to craftsmanship are visible in each bottle produced. They practice sustainable viticulture, ensuring to preserve the health of the soil and minimize the use of pesticides. The result is a naturally pure, high-quality wine that truly reflects Wairarapa's terroir. In addition to producing exceptional wines, Schubert Estate also offers an unparalleled tasting experience.

Discover the grape variety: Müller-Thurgau

Müller-Thurgau shows the character of its noble origins. This Swiss white grape variety is a cross between the royal madeleine and the riesling. The idea that the latter was crossed with the sylvaner is irrelevant. The variety can be recognized by its vigorous character and its semi-erect habit. Preferring rich soils and short prunings, the plant sees its buds open quite early. The buds are cottony and soft green in color. The slightly embossed and tormented blade, with 5 to 7 lobes, makes it possible to distinguish the adult leaves. The clusters appear compact, pyramidal or cylindrical in shape and small to medium in size. The flavour of the Müller-Turgau berries is reminiscent of Muscat. The juicy and crunchy pulp is revealed under a greyish skin. When ripe, the fruit has a mottled shell on a golden yellow background. Switzerland prefers to extract the juice from this variety. The wine made from it is rather heavy and does not keep well.
