Riesling Muschelkalk

The Riesling Muschelkalk from Spreitzer shows what the Rheingau riverbank vineyards can achieve: a wine with clear structure, beautiful melt, and the varietal-typical freshness that distinguishes Riesling from the Rhine.

The Spreitzer winery in Oestrich-Winkel is one of the reliable addresses in the Rheingau. The family farms vineyards directly on the banks of the Rhine, where deep shell limestone soils allow the roots to drive deep into the rock. This mineral subsoil gives the wines their density and characteristic pull.

Bright straw yellow in the glass. On the nose, fresh peach, ripe quince, and a hint of citrus zest. Juicy on the palate, with lively acidity that keeps the wine tight without appearing too edgy. The finish is medium-long, with a fine mineral note.

The Winery

Spreitzer

VDP Member Estate

The German winery Spreitzer from the Rheingau was founded as early as 1641 and is now owned by Andreas and Bernd Spreitzer. It is located directly on the Rhine, not far from the cities of Mainz and Wiesbaden, and has a total vineyard area of 30 ha, which is distributed over four sites. Among the best sites of the winery are Oestricher Lenchen and Doosberg.

A special feature of the winery is the vaulted cellar from 1745 in which the produced wines are stored. The soils of the sites consist of loess loam, marl, and partly of quartzite and offer the vines excellent water supply due to the proximity to the Rhine.

At the Spreitzer winery, 97% of the Riesling grape variety is grown and only a small percentage of Pinot Noir. In total, the winery produces and sells approximately 160,000 bottles of wine.
