Hattenheim Wisselbrunnen Riesling GG

The Hattenheimer Wisselbrunnen vineyard is one of the three so-called "Brunnenlage" sites in the Rheingau region — and Spreitzer is one of the wineries that consistently exploits the potential of this site. The result is a dry Riesling with depth and aging potential.

The vineyard lies between Hattenheim and Erbach, facing south-southwest. The tertiary marl soils store water efficiently—even in dry years, the grapes ripen evenly. Spreitzer has cultivated his Rheingau vineyards for generations and is today one of the most reliable producers of Grosses Gewächs wines from the Rheingau.

In the glass, the Wisselbrunnen displays the typical Rheingau Riesling structure: ripe citrus fruit, a hint of white peach, beneath which lies a mineral, almost chalky depth. The acidity is present but integrated—not sharp, but a supporting line that keeps the wine long and fresh on the finish.

Recommendation: Veal sweetbreads, grilled turbot with caper butter, or a mature Comté cheese. Serving temperature 10–12 °C. Drinking window 2025–2033 — those who wait will be rewarded with greater complexity.
