UPCOMING WINEMAKER’S DINNER
MEET CHRISTIAN NETT
Thursday October 27, 2022
6:30pm
Another member of the avant-garde group of talented, visionary German winemakers, Christian Nett represents the fifth generation in this small family estate located in the heart of the Pfalz.
Due to its almost Mediterranean climate, this wine region also produces many exotic fruits that are normally not associated with Germany.
The family vineyards are cultivated with the utmost respect for the environment, avoiding the use of harmful herbicides and pesticides. Only the best and healthiest grapes are selected to produce the estate wines.
VITICULTURE & VINIFICATION
The vineyards are located amidst a Mediterranean-like region, about 120 to 140 m above sea level. You will find kiwi, figs, almonds, and chestnuts in and around the vineyards, giving the wines from this area their unmistakable, exotic character. The work in the vineyards is conducted with the utmost respect for nature. Often the ground is worked with the help of their vineyard horse. In the cellar, after a gentle pressing of the grapes, the wines are given time to mature on their fine lees for added character, structure, and complexity

“We came across this grower in a restaurant in downtown Frankfurt, near the financial district, featuring international cuisine made fresh each day from local produce and meats. Christian’s wines came highly recommended by the restaurant’s owner, and it proved to be a great recommendation indeed. A subsequent visit to the winery and meeting with Christian confirmed the initial impression.”
