Critic reviews
Critic reviews
James Suckling – "Very complex nose of red fruits, candied orange, baking spice, wild herbs and smoke. Equally complex and refined on the tense and beautifully structured palate, perfectly filled out by the fine tannins. Long, filigree and stony finish. From a site with very shallow soil directly over a limestone cliff. From biodynamically grown grapes. 100% whole cluster, wild fermented, then 18 months in small oak. Unfiltered and unfined. Drinkable now, but best from 2024." -Stuart Piggot

Winemaker Simone Adams has discovered that a small strip of vines, which stands at the upper end of the Sonnenhang vineyard in Rheinhessen, possesses a very special quality. Therefore, she vinifies them for herself, under the name Auf dem Haun. Before the grapes even reach the cellar, Simone Adams has carefully examined the vines in the field, so that the grapes achieve the optimum quality. The leaves on the bunch are cut away so that they get as much sunlight as possible and the bunches are reduced in size so that the remaining grapes get the highest possible quality.
When the must finally reaches the winery, it must develop for 12 months in used oak barrels before Simone Adams is satisfied with the quality of his Spätburgunder.
The result is a Spätburgunder wine that balances perfectly between the intense and the elegant. Red, ripe berries flow over the palette, and if you serve it chilled, you have an extravagant experience waiting for you. This is as juicy as it is silky.

About German Wines
Germany is the world’s northernmost fine wine producing region and thus requires its vines to endure some of the coldest temperatures. Fortunately, the country’s star variety, Riesling, does well in cooler climates and can survive even these freezing winters.
Germany Riesling is classified by ripeness at harvest which is also used to indicate the wine’s level of residual sugar. Picking earlier means the grapes have less time to ripen and the corresponding wines will be on the drier side; while picking later gives the grapes the opportunity full ripen and produce a lusciously sweet Riesling. The classifications from driest to sweetest: Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese and Eiswein (ice wine). While not as common to age white wines outside of Chardonnay, top tier German Rieslings can be aged for decades.
Other notable white grape varieties produced in Germany include Müller-Thurgau (a cross between Riesling and Madelaine Royale in the search for varieties that could withstand the extreme temperatures), Grauburguner (Pinot Gris) and Weissburguner (Pinot Blanc). The cooler German climate leads to earlier harvesting in general and gives German wines a distinctive character of higher acidity.
Historically red wine has always been harder to produce in the German climate. However, Pinot Noir grown in slightly warmer pockets of the country, has been highly successful in recent times. Going by the German name, Spätburgunder, German Pinot Noir can be elegant, structured and have vibrant acidity.
