Eitelsbacher Riesling Alte Reben 2020

50-year-old vines for eternity

Our Riesling "Alte Reben" initially shows light herbs on the nose. There are also local fruits such as red apple and white currant, complemented by blueberry notes and fine mineral notes. In the mouth, the wine unfolds a tension between lively acidity and creamy texture, supported by crystalline minerality. The long finish is characterized by Ruwertal freshness and subtle peppery spice.

food recommendation

veal sweetbreads, halibut, fish

The Alte Reben 2020 goes perfectly with veal sweetbreads and fried halibut. The lively acidity and creamy texture underline the fine aromas of the food, while the mineral note and peppery spice perfectly complement fish dishes. Also ideal for dishes that benefit from the fresh structure and minerality of the wine.

Karthäuserhof Etikett Eitelsbach

trademark

A globally unique trademark

The Eitelsbach stream runs through the garden in front of our main house, where Willhelm and Kathinka Rautenstrauch spent cool breaks in hot summers in the 19th century. To cool the Karthäuserhof wines, they put the bottles in the cold stream. But the labels came off and floated away. This is how Wilhelm Rautenstrauch invented our unmistakable neck label and a trademark that is unique worldwide.

Karthäuserhof Weinberg

wineyards of immeasurable value

Das macht
den Karthäuserhofberg so legendär

Our monopol vineyard, the Karthäuserhofberg, is considered one of the most historical and fascinating vineyards in Germany. The steep southwest slope of the Karthäuserhofberg in the Ruwer Valley ensures optimal sunlight and a special microclimate. The mineral-rich slate soil gives the wines an unmistakable finesse and elegance that reflects the terroir of the Karthäuserhofberg. Wine has been grown here for over 1000 years. This long history and the accumulated knowledge shape every wine that is produced here. The combination of these two grape varieties in the special location in particular ensures wines of great complexity, freshness and longevity.
