Rheinhessen – Germany

Carol and Erik from Weingut Riffel are passionate about the nature of wine. They manage 16 hectares of vineyards in a biodynamic manner in Bingen am Rhein. Their top locations include the legendary Scharlachberg with Katharinenzins. They believe firmly in bio-dynamic principles because they want to preserve the planet earth for our children. The more soil activity with earthworms and micro-organisms, the healthier and better aerated the soil is. The vines appreciate this and thrive better. The more different plants , flowers and herbs grow in the vineyard, the more diverse the animal and insect world develops . This is good for the environment and perfect for their wine! Dornfelder is a native grape to Germany and is typical in the Rheinhessen region. Deep ruby in colour with a great combination of red and black fruit, combined with a nice spice to give it some body. Definitely worth giving Weingut Riffel a try. Pair with: Pepperoni pizza
