The Wine
Overlooking the Rhine as it stretches westward past Wiesbaden, the Rheingau boasts stunning views and magnificent historic estates. The Hochheim area, with south facing slopes and chalky, mineral rich soil, is renowned for the outstanding quality of its Rieslings. Here, Dr Franz Werner Michel is the 7th generation to head the Domdechant Werner estate, assisted by his daughter Catharine Mauritz. It was founded in 1780 and comprises today of vineyards in some of the finest sites, overlooking the picturesque Rhine and Main river valleys. Made purely from handpicked grapes from a superb 'Erste Lage' – Germany's equivalent of a Premier Cru – in premium Domdechaney, this is a very fine Riesling. Intense lime and peach with bristling minerality.
