Overlooking the Rhine as it stretches westward past Wiesbaden, the Rheingau is a region with stunning views and magnificent historic estates. The Hochheim area, with south facing slopes and chalky, mineral rich soil, is renowned for the outstanding quality of its Rieslings. Here, Dr Franz Werner Michel is the seventh generation to head the Domdechant Werner estate. The property comprises a stylish manor house and vineyards that overlook the picturesque city of Mainz and the Rhine and Main river valleys. Made purely from estate grown fruit, this Domdechant Werner Riesling Classic is off-dry in style with soft peach character backed by racy acidity. A perfect aperitif, it’s also great partnered with shellfish dishes or smoked salmon salad.
