The wine region of Mittelheim
Emblematic wine village at the heart of the Rheingau (between Winkel and Oestrich), alluvial terroirs on the Rhine bank. Exclusive signature Riesling — taut and precise white with lively notes of citrus, white peach, apricot, white flowers and a refined mineral-saline-fluvial touch, elevated to Grand Cru VDP at the Sankt Nikolaus site (Grosse Lage). Star estates: Peter Jakob Kühn and Josef Spreitzer. Rheingau gem of precision and depth.
The wine region of Rheingau
Historic cradle of great German Riesling: age-worthy whites of rare precision, from taut dry (Trocken) to botrytised sweet (Auslese, Beerenauslese, TBA) with notes of peach, citrus, acacia honey, noble petrol and slatey minerality. Riesling king on ~80% of the vineyard. Also Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir, 8%), notably the fine, silky Assmannshausen. 3,100 ha on south-facing slopes overlooking the Rhine (Hesse).
The word of the wine: Rancio
Odour and taste characteristic of certain wines that have undergone oxidative maturation, i.e. in contact with oxygen (vin jaune du Jura, dry rancio du Roussillon, maury, banyuls, rivesaltes, etc.).
