More about Knewitz

Appenheim isn't a name most Riesling drinkers know, and the Knewitz brothers have set out to change that. Tobias and Björn Knewitz make taut, limestone-driven dry Riesling in a quiet corner of northern Rheinhessen. In about fifteen years they turned the family farm into a member of the VDP, the association of Germany's top estates.

The family has made wine in Appenheim since the 19th century. Erwin and Magdalena Knewitz built the estate, and their son Gerold began bottling its wine in 1976. His son Tobias trained at Geisenheim and took over in 2007. Tobias's wife, Corina, and his brother Björn joined him soon after. The estate has grown to about 25 hectares around Appenheim, Gau-Algesheim and Nieder-Hilbersheim, at the foot of the Westerberg, a former coral reef. Limestone runs through every site, and Hundertgulden is reckoned among the most limestone-rich vineyards in Germany. The vines are farmed organically.

Riesling is the heart of it, aged in traditional wooden casks. It runs from the estate Riesling through village wines to Grosses Gewächs from Hundertgulden, Honigberg and Steinacker. Silvaner, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir fill out the range. The house style is cool and pure, with a salty streak, fine acidity and a spicy edge.

WINE GUIDES

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
