IMMEL is Rheinhessen's answer to Savoir Vivre characterized by centuries-old viticultural tradition infused with contemporary know-how and authentic regional identity.
IMMEL - the family
In the rolling chalky hills of Rheinhessen, where the most precious vineyards in the region open imposingly towards the river, the Immel family in 1754 settled and bought land. With a feel for the soil, climate and nature, the young team of Immel continues a careful preservation and expansion of regional winegrowing tradition. Today Rheinhessen is one of the most innovative winegrowing regions in all of Germany. Immel follows the idea of producing authentic wines from organic viticulture.
GEORG - the winemaker
Georg Rieser is the creative mind behind Immel. Training companies such as Wagner-Stempel, Weingut Wittmann and Domaine Dagueneau show his pursuit of excellence and love for terroir wines. As the father of two sons, organic viticulture is an important quality parameter of individual wines and also a promise to future generations.
Viticulture & Vinification
Focus lies on organic viticulture and a traditional vinification. After a selective harvest this wine ferments and ages in traditional French oak barrels on the full lees until the following summer.
Tasting Note
Delicate and elegant smell of citrus and peach with a chalky minerality. Complex and multi-layered. Shows a silky yet vibrant texture on the palate. Its long finish highlights the perfectly ripe fruit in harmony with salty minerality. A real terroir driven wine.
Press Review 2024
