- a noble, elegant sparkling wine, produced using the traditional method, which will delight you! -
Light white gold, sunset reflections. Very refreshing, barely their current nose with a hint of white tree fruit that lingers, plus fine yeast aromas (bread crust), citrus fruits, red apple and again persistent mineral notes. A super fresh, lively sparkling wine with fine, pleasant perlage and a salty, fruity finish. A wonderful aperitif wine on the one hand, but also a serious food accompaniment.
Old Vine Reisling
We are a third-generation winery in Brauneberg. We took over the business from our parents and are continuing the tradition that our family started over a hundred years ago. A wife and husband team, Sammie and Stefan Steinmetz brings you tradition, innovation and craft in every bottle representing the classic characteristics of German wine bursting with flavors. Sammie Steinmetz, a southern American military expat who owns the distinction of being the only black woman working in wine in the entirety of Mosel, Germany vineyards. She is in study as a viticulturist.
They practice what they call “natural viticulture,” which means using no fertilizers, herbicides, or insecticides, plus controlling yields and carefully harvesting and sorting by hand. They’ve focused on acquiring plots of old, own-rooted Riesling parcels when possible. The Brauneberger Juffer site is the trademark of their winery, and they also own plots in such famous sites as Kestener Paulinshofberg, Piesporter Goldtröpfchen, Wintricher Geierslay and Oligsberg, Mülheimer Sonnenlay, Veldenzer, Grafschafter Sonnenberg, and Dhroner Hofberg. The extremely steep slopes in these areas mean that they can only be worked by hand.
