Weingüter Wegeler
Since 1882, Wegeler has been synonymous with excellent winegrowing in Germany. Today, the fourth generation runs the family business with a blend of tradition, foresight, and genuine passion—especially for Riesling, complemented by a small proportion of Pinot Noir.
Julius Wegeler began as a wine merchant and sparkling wine producer at Deinhard before becoming a winemaker himself. For him, wine was always a question of quality, maturity, and patience: young wines spent at least two winters on the lees, exceptional vintages even longer. With this foresight and the right instinct for top vineyards, he laid the foundation for a winery with a unique portfolio of Grand and Premier Cru vineyards in the Rheingau and Mosel regions.
Steep slopes with slate and loess soils give the Rieslings minerality, tension, and aging potential. The mild climate and proximity to the river ensure slow, even ripening. This results in Rieslings with elegance, depth, and long-lasting aromatics. The Pinot Noirs—especially those from Assmannshausen—captivate with their silky structure, fine acidity, and characterful fruit.

A particular highlight is Krone Assmannshausen, a partner since 2007 and a full member of Wegeler since 2014. In 1860, the cellar still in use today was dug 60 meters deep into the Frankenthal rock – perfect conditions for the maturation of first-class Pinot Noir. The vineyards around Assmannshausen, on weathered Taunus phyllite slate and deep loess, are representative of the greatness, elegance, and aging potential of Rheingau red wine.
With a focus on Riesling and Pinot Noir, centuries of experience, modern vision, and unique terroir, Wegeler produces wines that meet the highest standards and are internationally acclaimed.
Producer
Bladnoch Distillery
Founded in 1817, Bladnoch is one of Scotland's oldest distilleries with over 200 years of eventful history and has always been privately owned. It is nestled between lush green meadows in the county of Dumfries & Galloway, making it the most southerly distillery in the country.
Bodega Palacios Remondo
He was born 'at home', right above his father's bodega – Álvaro Palacios, Spains star vintner. The scent of wine and barrels must have been lying in the air and thus dictated his further life. He studied oenology in Bordeaux and gathered professional experience at the Château Pétrus, and in London, Dublin, and California. Today, he owns vines in the Priorat county, in Bierzo, and at home in the Rioja, and proves his extraordinary talent with premium wines year after year.
Il Molino di Grace
Frank Grace acquired this estate in 1995 after holidaying in Tuscany with his wife and having fallen for the charm of this idyllic region.
