80%
The king of white wine. No other grape translates terroir so precisely or ages with such grace. Rheingau Riesling defines the benchmark worldwide.
12%
Germany's Pinot Noir. In Assmannshausen, on dark red slate soils, it reaches world-class quality. Rich, silky, and deeply mineral.
8%
Weißburgunder, Grauburgunder, Chardonnay and experimental varieties — the supporting cast of a remarkable wine region.
Top Classification
The Rheingau's own premier cru designation. Dry, powerful wines from classified top sites. Hand-harvested, low yields, minimum aging.
VDP Grand Cru
The VDP's top category for dry wines from Grosse Lage sites. The Rheingau uses both GG and EG in parallel — both represent the absolute pinnacle.
Late Harvest
Born in the Rheingau in 1775 when a messenger arrived late at Schloss Johannisberg. Overripe grapes, concentrated sweetness, extraordinary longevity.
The Rarest Wine
Only in exceptional years. Individually selected botrytis-shrivelled grapes. Liquid gold — 50+ years of aging potential. Produced in minute quantities.
