The distinctive way our wines are made is the foundation of their uniqueness and complexity. We are pleased to give you an idea of what to expect when looking for a particular style of wine in our range.
On every label you will find information about the sweetness level, style, vintage, and wine number. These details help guide you to the character and taste of the wine.
This wine category usually refers to simple table wines. At our estate, however, we also use it for our experimental wines. In recent years, many of these wines have been labeled “Landwein der Mosel.”
In this category you may find wines such as our unsulfured bottlings. These are complex and unconventional wines for those seeking a new and different wine experience.
At our estate we celebrate the uniqueness of each vintage and the complexity of aged wines. Below you will find an overview of the character of different vintages.
1986 – Our first vintage; at that time winemaking was still a hobby for us.
1987 – The last relatively cool year; the wines were marked by pronounced acidity.
1988 – Since this excellent vintage, there have been no truly cold wine years at the Mosel.
1989 – A very good year for us, with overripe grapes. The 1989 Paradies trocken is a great wine.
The very first digit of the number (on the left) indicates the sweetness level of the wine.
1 = Dry
2 = Off-dry (Feinherb)
3 = Sweet
The last three digits form a sequential number. The system began in 1986, when our very first wine received the number 3001.
Each wine number is assigned only once. This allows us to identify every wine we have produced, even many years later.
Example:
Wine number 1648 is a dry wine (first digit “1”) and it is the 648th wine we have produced.
