Baron Knyphausen

Rheingau Riesling across the spectrum: dry to botrytized to ice wine.

Baron Knyphausen produces Riesling from the Rheingau, Germany's most prestigious white wine region. The winery's portfolio centers on the noble grape in its most expressive forms: dry, late-harvest, and ice-wine styles. The Erbacher Michelmark Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese—a botrytized dessert wine of concentrated fruit and mineral tension—stands at the apex of the range. Alongside it, the Erbacher Steinmorgen bottlings in Auslese and Eiswein formats demonstrate the terroir's capacity for complexity across the ripeness spectrum. Rheingau Rieslings are defined by their balance of fruit intensity and acidity, with the region's slate soils and riverside microclimate imparting distinctive mineral character. These wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Falstaff, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Decanter.
