The Wine The Wine
Germany
Region:Rheinhessen
Eiswein is a specialty of the Schales family from Rheinhessen. The harvest for this luscious wine may only be carried out at a temperature of -7°C, which ensures that the water in the Silvaner grapes is largely frozen, so that a very high concentration of sweetness can be guaranteed. Once fermented, you get a wine with intense apricot, peach and white blossom aromatics as well as some subtle citrus and green apple too. The fruit on the palate is luscious but there's a stony freshness and grip that keeps it all together, with the sweetness really well balanced by acidity on a long finish.

Christian Schales
Christian Schales is the 8th generation of his family to run the winery since it was established in 1783. His passion for craftsmanship, but also the balance between tradition and innovation, is what makes winemaking so exciting to him.
"Typical nose with aromas reminiscent of ripe citrus fruit and fresh apricots. A juicy palate with crisp acidity and opulent sweetness. Still young but at the beginning of a great future and long storage life." - Christian Schales, Winemaker.
