Terroir, soil & homeland with Winzerbuddie Nils Hohnheit
Bullenheim in October 2022 Dear club members, Everyone has their center of the world, and that's a good thing! I briefly thought about renaming the motto for October to "Big blocks - don't make a mess". You can see why that would certainly have been right, right at the back of the wine selection. In fact, today's topic is home and the diversity of the Franconian wine region. In Franconia we have three different soil formations on which the vines grow. The actual landscape formation of today's Franconia only started in the Tertiary, i.e. about 40 million years ago, and...
Wine subscription September 2022 /// What are we going to do with this autumn weather? Red!
What are we going to do with this autumn weather? Red! Today is Tuesday, one of the first rainy days of autumn here in the wine paradise of Franconia. We have already been able to harvest 90% of our grapes. And I can tell you one thing - it's going to be great. Our nature is something very special. And the last few weeks have confirmed that again.

Here comes the answer. My family has been making a living from and with wine for over half a millennium. Wine flows in our veins. 😉 Not only because of our tradition are we proud...
Wine subscription July 2022 / Winzerbuddie Julia Dürr-Döppert
The Scheurebe is so beautiful! I've been looking forward to this topic for a long time. Today we are talking about the queen of white wine, namely the Scheurebe. Why this topic now? I hope you have been able to keep a cool head in the temperatures over the past few weeks. For my part, I was happy to open a very well-chilled bottle of Scheurebe in the evening after work was done. Incidentally, Scheurebe is the answer to all questions. Because Scheurebe simply always tastes good. It is a wine that always convinces with its unique fruity-spicy aroma, never...
