Schäfer-Fröhlich Schlossböckelheim FELSENBERG Riesling dry GG

The Felsenberg is one of the great Riesling sites of the Nahe: steep slope above Schlossböckelheim, weathered rock of porphyry and slate, extreme temperature fluctuations between day and night. Tim Fröhlich from the Schäfer-Fröhlich winery vinifies this Grosses Gewächs with the precision that has brought the estate into the first rank of German Riesling addresses for years — spontaneous fermentation, long aging on the lees, minimal intervention in the cellar.

In the glass, the Felsenberg GG shows a taut grapefruit aroma, underlaid by flint and fresh herbs. The palate is lean and yet dense: firm acidity structure that carries the wine without stinging, and a salty minerality that extends into the long finish. Not a wine for a quick sip — it needs air and time in the glass.

Drinking temperature 10–12 °C. Goes well with zander fillet on beurre blanc, Breton oysters, or a mature Comté — anywhere where acidity and saltiness are required at the table.

Schäfer-Fröhlich

VDP Member Estate

The Schäfer-Fröhlich winery originates in the picturesque Nahe Valley in Germany and boasts a long family tradition of winemaking. Since 1800, the Schäfer family has dedicated itself to cultivating grapevines and producing high-quality wines. Today, the winery is managed by Tim Fröhlich, who combines his ancestors' traditions with modern winemaking techniques. The estate stretches across the hills of the Nahe Valley and benefits from the region's unique climatic and geological conditions. The vineyards are primarily planted with Riesling and Pinot Noir grapes, which find ideal conditions here to produce wines of exceptional quality. The Schäfer-Fröhlich winery's portfolio comprises an impressive selection of wines that reflect the diversity and quality of the Nahe region. The Rieslings, in particular, are the winery's hallmark and are known for their elegance, freshness, and longevity. In addition, the winery also produces excellent Burgundy wines as well as other varieties that perfectly express the terroir and the winemaker's skill. At Schäfer-Fröhlich, quality is paramount. The winery relies on meticulous handwork in the vineyard and gentle processing of the grapes in the cellar to unlock the full potential of the wines. Winemaking is carried out using traditional methods and state-of-the-art viticultural techniques to produce wines of the highest quality and authenticity.
