Dr. Heyden, Pinot Noir trocken QbA, Rheinhessen, Germany 2016
{sustainable} 100% Pinot Noir CHERRY, EARTHY MINERAL, FRENCH OAK Working from 11 hectares in the town of Oppenheim, the Heyden family is making an international splash. Winemaking prodigy Frank Heyden combines grapes from his Schlöss vineyard (for elegance and fruit) with those from his Kreuz vineyard (for weight and body). This is a scream and will eradicate any misconceptions you have about German reds. Satisfyingly rich and Burgundian in style, this Zeppelin of a Pinot revels in the variety's classic character and illustrates why Pinot is now Germany's most planted red varietal! Serving Suggestion: Lean beef like tenderloin. Quail & richer poultry dishes. String beans w/ wild rice, almonds, & butter.12 in stock

Dr. Heyden, Riesling Kabinett, Oppenheimer, Rheinhessen, Germany, 2017
BRILLIANT CITRUS, TANGY & TINGLY, SLIGHTLY OFF-DRY When Karl Heyden’s son, Frank, took over winemaking at the family estate, he went to work catapulting quality to new heights. With a deep commitment to sustainable agriculture, the Heyden family is a leader not only in quality but environmental friendliness as well. With inspired balance, lemony-limeish citrus, and glimmering minerality shining through, it's a true head turner! Serving Suggestions: This wine plays well with powerful, pungent flavors. Stuffed cabbage with tomatoes and nutmeg is a natural. Strong, aged goat cheeses make for heavenly pairings.5 in stock

Dr. Heyden, Silvaner "Alten Reben" Trocken, Rheinhessen, Germany, 2018
{sustainable} 100% Silvaner FLORAL, CLEAN CITRUS, BRIGHT AND FRESH Old vine Silvaner is a true rarity in Germany's Rheinhessen. While it remains the second most planted grape (after Riesling) in Germany, it has always been in the shadows. In fact some have even accused it of neutrality. So, Frank Heyden quietly makes this from old vines, and the quality shines so brightly that all shadows disappear in a fresh, zesty, mouth-wateringly delicious wash of Silvaner-ish-ness. Juicy and floral from start to finish, this is a great example of coaxing the best from a grape. Serving Suggestion: We had this with Frank's mom's carrot soup, smoked trout, and artisanal cold cuts. Everything works with this Silvaner! Very versatile!9 in stock
