Trenz SOIL & SOUL handcrafted GIN 0.5L

Gin is much more than just a spirit. Gin is a way to express oneself and one's preferences – not only for the person enjoying it, but also for the person creating it.” Michael Trenz should know, after all, he's not one for half measures. With the same precision and meticulousness he puts into his wines, he has created his first handcrafted gin. He uses only hand-picked Riesling grapes and carefully selected botanicals such as grapefruit, kumquat, and pink peppercorns, which are gently steeped and distilled using the pot still method to preserve their aromas. The spirit then has the privilege of maturing for four months in barriques that were previously used for over two years to age Johannisberg Alte Reben Riesling. To round out the flavor, Michael finally infuses it with Johannisberger Vogelsang Riesling Spätlese. The floral notes of the Riesling blend harmoniously with the spicy aromas of the macerated botanicals to create a perfectly balanced, crisp, fresh and pleasantly mild taste experience, which is best enjoyed neat and in peace and quiet or in a freshly mixed gin and tonic.

The Winery

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.

Riesling grows on almost 15 hectares, 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 precisely for that 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.
