Wine from Rheinhessen
Filter
Rheinhessen, also known as ‘the land of thousand hills’ is the largest wine region in Germany. It is situated at the southern part of Rheingau, northern part of Pfalz and eastern part of Nahe. Rheinhessen region is characterized by stony soils and warm climate that provide warmth and cultivation to different kinds of grape vines in the region.
Rheinhessen is divided into three regions; Bereich Nierstein, Bereich Bingen and Bereich Wonnegau. Bereich Nierstein is popular for its rich mineral deposits that make it a viable region for grape varietals to grow. Bereich Bingen accounts for majority of red wines produced in Rheinhessen. Bereich Wonnegau is home to Scheurebe grape that makes up about three percent of Rheinhessen’s wine produce.
A Müller-Thurgau grape leads the wine production in Rheinhessen followed by Riesling. Silvaner grape is considered to be the region’s oldest grape varietal but is not commonly produced now as it was before. Dornfelder dominates the red grape production in the region although Pinot Noir from Spätburgunder and Blanc de Noir has grown popular over the years.

Thomas Sancerre Rose is made from 100% Pinot Noir.
Vines are 20-55 years old.
Terroir (soil type) is a blend of "Caillottes" and "Terre Blanche".
Everything is machine harvested (which means it is 100% destemmed).
50% Direct press + 50% Saignée (bled) with 12-24 hours of skin contact maceration.
The alcoholic fermentation is done in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks.
Right before bottling, the wine is fined with Bentonite (very light filtration with oenologic clay).
Tasting Notes:
Light, bright pink. Redcurrant, strawberry and chalk on the nose, with a touch of singed orange gaining strength with air. Dusty red fruit and citrus flavors are braced by tangy minerality, which adds lift and cut. Uncompromising in the best way, finishing with excellent clarity and echoes of lemon and orange zest.
Food pairings:
This is a very versatile wine. You can have it on its own in the summer time as an apéritif. But it is also excellent with Hors d'Oeuvres and terrines. It will compliment any white meat dish and poultry. You can also enjoy it with salmon or exotic food (slightly spicy sushi).
