Weingut Robert König

Rheingau Spätburgunder from Assmannshausen's storied red wine vineyards.

Weingut Robert König operates in the Rheingau, Germany's premier region for Riesling and increasingly recognized for Spätburgunder—the German name for Pinot Noir. The winery's focus centers on dry Spätburgunder from two distinguished vineyard sites in Assmannshausen, the Rheingau's red wine stronghold. The Assmannshäuser Frankenthal Spätburgunder Spätlese Trocken and Assmannshäuser Höllenberg Spätburgunder Spätlese Trocken represent the winery's core offerings. Both are dry expressions of Spätburgunder from the Spätlese harvest level, a designation indicating riper fruit selection. Falstaff has rated wines from the portfolio. The Frankenthal vineyard wine achieved a prestige rating of 94.0, while the Höllenberg site wine scored 89.0, reflecting the distinct terroir characteristics of each slope.
