  • About the Producer

    Wittmann is based in Westhofen, the heart of southern Rheinhessen, surrounded by some of the region’s best vineyards. The Wittmanns are not exactly newcomers to the area, having made wine here since 1663, and perhaps this gives them a sense of responsibility for the soils in their vineyards: they were pioneers in adopting organic methods in 1990. A conversion to biodynamisn followed in 2004 and Philipp Wittmann reports that his wines now have more character and depth. The estate makes wine from a number of varieties, but predominantly Riesling. Most holdings are in Westhofen, but like their colleague Klaus-Peter Keller, they also have vineyards in Nierstein.

  • About the Latest Vintage

    The 2019 growing season was relatively easy. Budbreak and flowering were much later than in 2018; there was no frost or hail damage, and the water-retentive clays soils prevented drought. Little leaf plucking was carried out, so there was only minor sunburn damage from the heat spike in July, and this was cut out before the grapes were ripe. A harvest of beautifully healthy grapes began on 16th September and finished in mid-October before the heavy rains arrived.

    After such a warm summer, Philipp Wittmann was surprised and delighted with the freshness of the wines. In 2018, precocious vine development meant that the grapes were very ripe when they were hit by the full blast of summer heat. In 2019 the later start meant that the grapes were less ripe, and they withstood the heat much better. Cool nights in September helped to stabilise the acidity. As a result, the 2019s have more acidity and less alcohol than in the previous year. For Philipp Wittmann it is the perfect marriage of a classic and a ripe year. His wines are lovely across the board – precise, cool, fresh and long.
