Von Winning Deidesheimer Maushohle Riesling

Everything takes time. Especially the good things in life. Von Winning, one of the best known and most legendary German wineries, is well aware that things never go well when you’re in a hurry. For this reason, their vinifications are slow and natural, based on spontaneous fermentation, with nothing and no one to influence their winemaking methods. And also because it would be a real shame to mishandle the grapes used to make their wines.

In the southwest of Germany, in the heart of the Palatinate, the Von Winning winery finds the best clusters. They have a very wide range of products. All of them come from this well-known corner, considered the warmest in Germany (with more than 1,000 hours of sunshine per year), including Von Winning Deidesheimer Mäushöhle Riesling, a dry and concentrated white.

Von Winning Deidesheimer Mäushöhle Riesling starts life in Maushöhle, the oldest vineyard in the town of Deidesheim, which is where it gets its name. This site, home to about 30 vineyards, faces southeast with an altitude between 125 and 200 metres above sea level. However, the real beauty of this area, with its stony and calcareous soils, is its proximity to the Haart Mountains, just to the west, which protect the vines from the wind.

These small details make this a place where they make great wines that are worth taking the time to stop and savour. Make time in your busy schedule for Von Winning Deidesheimer Mäushöhle Riesling. You won’t regret it.
