Hammel & Cie Local Hero Riesling & Sauvignon Blanc off-dry

Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc — two grape varieties that at first glance have little in common, but here create a harmonious cuvée: fruity and aromatic on the one hand, firm and mineral on the other.

Behind this local favorite is the Hammel & Cie winery from the Palatinate, one of the region's most traditional family-run wineries. The name says it all: no exoticism, no stylistic experiments, just an honest, everyday wine from their home region.

In the glass, the cuvée displays aromas of white peach, elderflower, and a hint of grapefruit—the Sauvignon Blanc provides the aromatic freshness, while the Riesling contributes a cool minerality on the finish. At just above dry, a gram of residual sugar remains perceptible without weighing the wine down: the acidity maintains the balance.

The Winery

Weingut Hammel & Cie

Since 1723, the Hammel & Cie winery in Kirchheim an der Weinstraße has been one of the reliable addresses in the Palatinate – today, Christoph Hammel is already running the business in the ninth generation. You can feel almost three centuries of family tradition in every bottle: this is not about short-term trends, but about consistency that has grown over generations.

On 42 hectares around the historic village center of Kirchheim, Riesling, Burgundy varieties, Sauvignon Blanc, and now also Grüner Veltliner grow – and in one of the mildest climate regions in Germany. This special warmth, combined with the diverse soils of the Palatinate, gives the grapes a ripeness that you can taste in the end in the glass. In the vineyard, the family sticks to proven traditions; in the cellar, they consciously rely on the targeted use of steel and wood to give each grape variety exactly the framework it needs.

The result is wines with a clear signature and aromatic fruit that deliver exactly what the family itself formulates as its leitmotif: to bring joy. Whether for an uncomplicated evening or a special occasion – at Hammel & Cie you will find wines that combine tradition and Palatinate joie de vivre in a completely natural way.
