Economic Advisor Rebholz Sauvignon Blanc

Sauvignon Blanc from the Palatinate is rare — and even rarer is it crafted with such consistent artisanal skill as at the Ökonomierat Rebholz winery. This spontaneously fermented version demonstrates the full potential of this grape variety when given the time it needs.

The Rebholz winery in Siebeldingen is one of the leading wineries in the Palatinate region. For decades, the family has worked with minimal intervention in the cellar, spontaneous fermentation, and extended lees aging—methods that highlight the terroir character rather than overriding it.

In the glass, the Sauvignon Blanc displays herbs, green grass, and grapefruit—the typical varietal aromas, but grounded by a salty minerality that distinguishes this wine from simpler examples. Medium-bodied, with lively acidity and a dry finish with a spicy aftertaste. Spontaneous fermentation adds a subtle yeasty depth, making the wine more complex than its fresh aroma profile initially suggests.

Serving suggestion: Best served at 10–12 °C. Pairs well with goat cheese, asparagus with hollandaise sauce, grilled sea bass, or herb risotto. Drink now—its fresh character is best appreciated when young.
