Wine of the month August 2013

The 2012 "55 Grad Nord" is just the ticket. The name "55° Nord" refers to the 55th degree of latitude that runs through the North Sea island of Sylt. This is where we planted a vineyard of our own in 2009. Germany's northernmost vineyard lies 20 meters (ca. 33 ft.) above sea level in close proximity to the Wadden Sea on the outskirts of Keitum on Sylt. In 2009, the Agricultural Ministry of Schleswig-Holstein awarded us a contract to cultivate a 0.3-ha (0.7-acre) piece of propery on the island. The wine is a 100% Rheingau Riesling and pays homage to this beautiful and popular island.
