CURIOSITY
KOEHLER-RUPRECHT WAS FOUNDED IN 1700S, BUILDING A REPUTATION FOR QUALITY DRY RIESLINGS DURING A PERIOD WHEN THE STYLE WAS NOWHERE NEAR AS POPULAR AS IT IS TODAY.
KALLSTADTER ANNABERG IS THE YOUNGEST WINE-GROWING REGION. ABOUT 120 YEARS AGO, A WINERY OWNER NAMED HIS PROPERTY AFTER HIS WIFE. LATER, THE NAME WAS ADOPTED FOR THE WHOLE AREA.
ALL WINES ARE SPONTANEOUSLY FERMENTED WITH THEIR OWN YEASTS AND AGED ENTIRELY IN LARGE, NEUTRAL STÜCK (1200L OVAL CASKS) AND HALBSTÜCK (600L). NO ENZYMES, AND NO MANIPULATIONS OF ANY KIND ARE PRACTICED HERE.
