Rheingauer Jungwinzer

Der Rheingau – eine wunderschöne Region, voller malerischer Dörfer, historischen Burgen und natürlich zahlreicher Weinberge - was die Region natürlich besonders für Wein-Liebhaber zu einem beliebten Ausflugsziel macht. Aber auch für Winzer ist der Rheingau  ein begehrtes Fleckchen Erde, schließlich gedeihen hier einige der besten Weine Deutschlands. Der Rheingau beherbergt aber auch eine spannende Jungwinzer-Szene, die mit vielen spannenden Ideen eine Brücke zwischen Tradition und Innovation schlägt. Das Besondere an den Rheingauer Jungwinzern ist, dass sie sich untereinander vernetzen und ihre Ideen und Erfahrungen miteinander teilen. Das führt letztendlich dazu, dass die Qualität der Weine dieser Jungwinzer steigt, wovon Weinliebhaber, Weingüter und die ganze Region profitieren. In diesem Special möchten wir Euch einige dieser Jungwinzer vorstellen:

Weingut Preis
Weingut Peter Flick
Weingut Schreiber
Weingut Dr. Corvers-Kauter
Weingut im Weinegg
Weingut Egert
Weingut Fritz Allendorf

Weingut Preis

The former wine queen of Hochheim, Janine Preis, is part of a family business that is already in its fourth generation. On the vineyards of Weingut Preis, in addition to Riesling and the blue Pinot Noir, we also grow Gewürztraminer, Portugieser, Dunkelfelder, Sylvaner and the Dornfelder. Even after her time as wine queen, Janine Preis is intensively committed to representing her region and the wine: She is also part of the young winemakers association MainWerk³.

Weingut Peter Flick

Peter Flick, who was one of the "Young Winemakers of the Year" a few years ago, is already the fifth generation to run the family winery in Hochheim am Main. Thereby, he relies on tradition consciousness, combined with innovative ideas and the love for wine. No wonder that "verflickst himmlische" wines are created, which regularly receive awards and top marks for their first-class quality.

Weingut Schreiber

Simon Schreiber was not only able to win first place for the Rheingau region at the "Germany's Best Young Winemakers 2018" competition. He also took the two first places in the category "Riesling dry without wood ageing" and "Experimental wines". Schreiber is also part of MainWerk³, an association of 11 young winemakers whose goal is to put the Upper Rheingau back on the map as a premier growing region.

Weingut Dr. Corvers-Kauter

When it comes to viticulture, the Corvers and Kauter families can look back on a centuries-old winemaking tradition. Together, Philipp Corvers and his father Matthias have managed to ensure that their wines have finally risen to the top ranks not only of Rheingau wines, but have caused a sensation nationwide. The Gault & Millau Wine Guide 2020 not only awarded them the "Discovery of the Year", but also an impressive 4 stars. No question: Wine lovers will certainly hear a lot more about this father-son team.

Weingut im Weinegg

In the Weingut im Weinegg, once a cathedral presence farm and later home to renowned estates such as Aschrott and Künstler, Fabian Schmidt has been making his wines since 2009. Moreover, his farm has been training young people as vintners for some years. On his vineyard, the studied winemaker produces terroir-based wines of special quality, which have earned his winery, among others. a recommendation of the Gault & Millau Weinguide 2020 brought in.

Weingut Egert

Sophie Egert represents the Rheingau and its wine as Rheingau Wine Princess. That this is in her blood is hardly surprising, as her family's winery can look back on an exquisite winemaking tradition that dates back to the 18th century. The vineyards of Weingut Egert are situated in prime locations. Here, mainly Rheingau Riesling top wines are produced. Sophie wants to leave her own mark on the family business and show "how young & dynamic German viticulture is."

Weingut Fritz Allendorf

Ulrich Allendorf runs the largest family-run winery around Winkel, Rüdesheim and Assmannshausen together with his sister Christine Schönleber. Christine's son Max Schönleber works as a cellar master at the winery. After his studies of oenology in Geisenheim and his apprenticeship in renowned wineries, the young winemaker has been contributing his expertise to the family business for about 8 years. Max Schönleber is particularly dedicated to the development of Pinot Noirs, where he can build on his father's experience, but also on his own expertise, which he was able to acquire in the course of his training at the Bernhard Huber winery.
