The Wittmann family business is located in Westhofen, Rheinhessen. It's a remarkably successful winery, and winemaker and owner Philipp Wittmann has twice been named Germany's best winemaker. Founded in 1663, the winery is now run by the 15th generation. Since 1990, the company has been certified organic, making it a pioneer in Germany. His father, Günter Wittmann, had long since abandoned traditional viticultural practices and therefore switched to more environmentally friendly methods for cultivating his grapes. Nature clearly takes center stage at this winery. Strict grape selection results in low yields, but the result is pure quality.
During the vinification process, only natural yeasts are used, meaning each vintage is slightly different. The grapes are carefully sorted and selected by hand to ensure only the very best remain. After gentle pressing, fermentation follows. Wittmann chooses to carry out this fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks or old oak barrels.
This Rosé Trocken from Wittmann emerges with a beautiful pink color in the glass. The aroma reveals fresh fruity notes of raspberry, pear, and a light spice. The aroma is therefore diverse, making it an accessible wine for various occasions and dishes. Fruity notes also emerge on the palate. Red currant and black currant blend together in the flavor, and the finish is delightfully spicy.
