Fruchtig 2022
Qualitätswein, Pfalz, Germany
Blend: 65% Gewürztraminer, 35% Riesling | 12% ABV
We are proud to offer this 2022 Fruchtig, a German white wine which is a unique blend that showcases both of its grapes, Gewürztraminer and Riesling beautifully produced in the Pfalz region of Germany. It perfectly balances the succulent fruitiness while remaining fairly dry. A perfect choice for those who appreciate aromatic wines.
The acidity and minerality of Riesling is offset by Gewürztraminer's unctuous lychees and aromatic floral and spice notes.
Service: Serve at 8°-10°C.
Food pairing: Good with fresh or semi-soft cheese, poultry, shellfish, spicy and vegetarian dishes.
Gerald Hundinger, the current generation winemaker is committed to respect not only life and nature but also really good wines. "Riesling with its vibrant and balanced acidity is an amazing variety that is totally corresponding with the terroir. Blended with the floral Gewürztraminer, it is the Riesling that brings forward the freshness. Rieslaner (a crossing of Riesling & Silvaner) is our favourite variety for sweet wines as these wines have an incredible balance of sweetness and acidity. They provide you a mouth full of flavour at a surprisingly low alcohol level” says Gerald.
Kaiserbaum’s Gewürztraminer & Riesling blend is produced across multiple places in the village of Weisenheim am Sand. Some of the 30-year-old Riesling vineyards produce their Rosenbühl Trocken cuvée.
The vines for the Gewürztraminer are younger, having only been planted in 2012. The soils are varied between sandy loam and limestone.

Cellaring: Ready to drink now.
Vinification: This fresh wine is fermented with selected yeasts in stainless steel, temperature-controlled vats. Once fermentation is carried out, the wine is racked and allowed to stay on its fine lees for 4-5 months following the vintage. The wines are filtered before bottling for stability and to keep the grapes’ juiciness intact.
