Weingut Graf

Rheinhessen dry wines: Dornfelder, Riesling, and Grauburgunder with structure.

Weingut Graf operates in Rheinhessen, Germany's largest wine region, where continental and maritime influences shape a diverse terroir. The winery's portfolio centers on dry expressions of regional classics. The Westhofener Bergkloster Dornfelder Trocken, made from the dark-skinned Dornfelder variety native to the region, demonstrates the grape's capacity for structure and depth in dry form. Alongside it stands the Westhofener Bergkloster Riesling Trocken, which channels Rheinhessen's signature mineral character into a bone-dry white. The Classic Grauer Burgunder rounds out the core range—a crisp, food-friendly expression of Grauburgunder that reflects the winery's commitment to dry-styled wines. Falstaff has assessed these offerings, recognizing their technical merit. The winery's focus on trocken (dry) wines positions it within a broader Rheinhessen movement toward precision and balance rather than residual sweetness.
