'Philipp still remembers clearly: it was March 1993, and he was with his father Günter in the estate's tasting room. Swirling a Morstein 1992 in slender, avant-garde Riedl glasses, they searched for the right words to something that defied description. Something that was present not just in the ‘92, but also in grand older bottles in the library. 'Crystal clear fruit' and 'glacier water' were the closest Philipp could manage.

Philipp had known even as a boy that he would take over the estate someday, but something changed in that moment, as if a switch had been flipped. What he finally understood: we make something here that can be really, really good. Unique. World class.'

Fast forward more than thirty years and here we are with a diverse and celebrated portfolio of wines from Weingut Wittmann, full of rich and intensely concentrated bottlings which are remarkably food-friendly and provide a real quality benchmark for the Rheinhessen region - and a range which features some of the most sought after Erste Lage and Grosse Lage labels of the area (Premier Cru and Grand Cru equivalents in terms of wine hierarchy).

The philosophy here is certainly one of low intervention and a focus on the concept of terroir, with old oak in use as well as stainless steel, and naturally-occuring yeasts from the vineyard used for fermentation, all assisting in the production of truly distinctive wines.

In order to celebrate the 31 Days of Riesling this July we have put together this delightful mixed case of first-class Rheinhessen Riesling, featuring a diverse range of labels and vintages from across the Wittmann portfolio, including Niersteiner and Gundersheimer climat wines, Vom Kalkstein showing off calcareous soils, and a natural zero-intervention blend showing Riesling in partnership with Silvaner, completely unfiltered and unfined.
