✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted by the legendary Weingut Künstler in the heart of the Rheingau, the 'Inspiration' Pinot Noir Rosé Trocken is a vibrant celebration of the Spätburgunder grape. Sourced from vineyards influenced by the unique microclimate of the Main and Rhine rivers, this dry rosé showcases the estate's ability to balance rich clay-loess minerality with delicate fruit. The grapes undergo gentle pressing and brief skin contact to extract its signature pale salmon hue, followed by cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve its pristine freshness. The result is an elegant, terroir-driven rosé that captures the historic winemaking heritage of Hochheim am Main, delivering a lively bouquet of wild strawberries, red currants, and a crisp, mineral-veined finish.
🍾 About the Producer
Weingut Künstler traces an illustrious family winemaking lineage to 1648 in southern Moravia, before Franz Künstler re-established the estate in Hochheim am Main in 1965 following post-war expulsion. Gunter Künstler assumed direction in 1992, elevating the domaine into one of Germany's preeminent dry Riesling benchmarks and earning VDP membership in 1994. Spanning approximately 50 hectares, Künstler's vineyard portfolio centers on Hochheim's warm eastern Rheingau mesoclimate, featuring loess, loam, and mineral-dense limestone marl sloping down to the Main River, complemented by holdings in Rüdesheim and Assmannshausen. Viticulture is practiced under certified Fair'n Green sustainable standards, marked by meticulous canopy management, low yields, and strict selective hand-harvesting. Cellar work emphasizes slow, gentle pressing and extended lees maturation in traditional large neutral oak casks and stainless steel, capturing formidable textural richness alongside crystalline acidity. The estate is celebrated for power-driven, long-lived VDP.Große Gewächse from legendary sites including Hochheimer Hölle, Hochheimer Kirchenstück, and Assmannshäuser Höllenberg Spätburgunder.
