The Schätzel Winery is located in the Riesling City Nierstein, on the legendary Rhine.
Schätzel - the RhineWinery
SchätzelWinery - that means 650 years of wine experience from Rheinhessen. Today, Schätzel cultivates 12 hectares, the largest part of which is located on vineyards in steep slopes on the Rote Hang in Nierstein. Here, there is a microclimate that challenges both the winemaker and the grapes on the vine. In the vineyard, work on the steep slopes at Schätzel is naturally done by hand, respecting the natural balance of vines and vineyard.
Schätzel's vaulted cellar - the key to top wines
In the vaults of Schätzel's old cellar, the wines ferment spontaneously with wild, vineyard-grown yeasts in traditional wooden barrels. Each site gets the chance to bring its character, as grown in the vineyard, to the bottle. Because some things should stay as they are!
The Schätzel sites
- Niersteiner Hipping
- Niersteiner Pettenthal
- Niersteiner Ölberg
The winemaker - Kai Schätzel
Winemaker Kai Schätzel is certainly one of the most observable winemakers in Rheinhessen at the moment. For years, vintage after vintage, he has been working his way towards a more determined style. Kai Schätzel has found his own style and brings his top Rheinhessen sites perfectly into the bottle.
The vines of Schätzel
Of course, at Schätzel it is primarily the classics of Rheinhessen that grow in the vineyard. The most important of these are:
- Riesling
- Riesling Kabinett
- Silvaner
