Trenz Riesling Sparkling Wine Brut

The Trenz winery has cultivated the tradition of winemaking and vinification since 1670 and has remained in the family ever since. On 10 hectares of vineyards, 85% Riesling, 12% Pinot Noir, and 3% Pinot Blanc are planted. Michael Trenz, a representative of the younger generation of winemakers, has managed the estate since 1998. His goal is to combine tradition with modern techniques while striving for the highest possible quality. Goethe described the Johannisberg vineyard with the phrase: "The Johannisberg reigns supreme." Known as the "crown of the Rheingau," this prominent quartzite hill presents itself in all directions and, thanks to its southern exposure and microclimate, fulfills the highest requirements for the Riesling grape. Vineyards on the Johannisberg were first documented in 817. Over the centuries, numerous noble families, monasteries, and family-run businesses have settled around Johannisberg, many of which still cultivate wine today. Examples include Schloss Johannisberg, Schloss Vollrads, the estate of the Prince of Hesse, Baron von Brentano, and the Monastery of St. Hildegard, to name just a few. Johannisberg owes its nickname, "Village of Wine and Roses," to the lavish display of blooming roses.

Weingut Michael Trenz

The Trenz winery in the Rheingau – founded in 1670. Michael Trenz has been running the family business as owner and cellar master since 1998. On nearly 15 hectares, primarily Riesling is grown, along with Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Pinot Blanc. The soils consist of Taunus quartzite with a humus layer of only ten centimeters – barren, and for that very reason, mineral-rich. Among the best sites are the Johannisberger Hölle and the Johannisberger Vogelsang. In 2008, Gault Millau named the estate the Discovery of the Year. Since 2002, two hectares in Stellenbosch have been part of the estate – Rheingau signature at the Cape.
