The '100 Hügel' (100 Hills) range is a tribute to the rolling, wave-like landscape of Rheinhessen, a region historically nicknamed the 'land of a thousand hills.' Crafted by the pioneering Wittmann estate, this Grauer Burgunder (Pinot Gris) is sourced from organically certified vineyards where the soils are rich in limestone and loess. Fermented cool to preserve its bright, primary fruit aromas and aged on its fine lees, this wine represents an approachable yet highly elegant expression of German Pinot Gris. It beautifully balances the estate's hallmark mineral precision with the naturally round, textured, and nutty character of the grape variety.

With a winegrowing heritage in the Rheinhessen village of Westhofen dating back to 1663, Weingut Wittmann is a pioneering force in German biodynamic viticulture, having committed to organic practices in 1990 and biodynamics in 2004. Managed today by Philipp Wittmann alongside his family, the estate is globally revered for its precise, terroir-driven dry Rieslings sourced from legendary Grosses Gewächs sites like Morstein, Kirchspiel, and Aulerde. In their historic vaulted cellar built in 1829, the wines are fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged in traditional large oak casks, resulting in structured, mineral-rich expressions of outstanding longevity.
