Production of Flora & Fauna Rosé from Weingut Eymann

The grapes for Flora & Fauna Rosé - Weingut Eymann come from sites around Gönnheim in the Palatinate, shaped by limestone and loess soils. This combination of lime-rich base and fine loess storage brings tension and juiciness to the grapes. The climate in the Palatinate is sun-blessed, with sufficiently cool nights that preserve freshness and aromatic clarity. Pinot Noir in particular reacts very sensitively to these conditions and develops a delicately fruity, elegant rosé style here.

Harvesting is done by careful hand-picking, grape by grape, with strict selection already in the vineyard. Only perfectly selected berries go on to further processing. In the cellar, the estate relies on gentle pressing, extracting only the finest fractions of the must. In this way a rosé is created that puts clarity and delicacy at the forefront, without unnecessary weight. Thanks to the gentle processing, the aromatic diversity of strawberry, raspberry, lilac and citrus is fully preserved.

Maturation takes place mainly in stainless-steel tanks, supplemented by ageing in large wooden casks with a volume of 5000 litres. Stainless steel supports the cool, clear fruit; the large cask provides discreet rounding and a finely structured texture. Wood notes remain in the background and hardly appear aromatically; instead they lend depth and a harmonious mouthfeel. Fermentation is temperature-controlled in order to preserve the fresh, precise aromatics of the Pinot Noir.

Weingut Eymann works biodynamically, with a focus on vibrant soils and natural balance in the vineyard. This philosophy is reflected in the wine as a finely structured texture and a strong sense of origin. The winemaker’s style relies on authenticity rather than showmanship: no overblown fruit cocktail, but a clear, elegant rosé with an independent profile. The Falstaff rating of 90 points underlines the estate’s ambition to produce characterful, high-quality wines that reflect their origin with precision.

Serving recommendations for Flora & Fauna Rosé - Weingut Eymann

As a versatile rosé, this wine accompanies a wide range of dishes. The interplay with light, hearty dishes is particularly appealing, such as roast poultry from the oven, spicy roast chicken or pork tenderloin with herbs. The lively acidity and red berry fruit provide a fresh counterpoint. The wine also harmonises with light, delicate dishes: summery salads with goat’s cheese, fish dishes, vegetable pasta, sushi or antipasti with Mediterranean herbs.

• Perfect with poultry, pork tenderloin, light meat
• Ideal partner for salads, fish, seafood
• Goes well with vegetable pasta, summery bowls, sushi
• Harmonious with mild cheeses and tapas

Flora & Fauna Rosé - Weingut Eymann is excellently suited as a balcony or terrace wine and brings lightness to relaxed evenings with friends. At garden parties, picnics in the park or summer barbecues it creates a cheerful atmosphere and carefree drinking pleasure. It also impresses as an aperitif before a meal or as a companion to brunch and finger food, with charm and an enticing character. The floral design of the Schlegel bottle also lends the wine a decorative touch on any table.

The optimum serving temperature is around 8 to 10 °C. At this temperature, fruit, acidity and minerality appear most balanced and the wine seems particularly refreshing. A classic white-wine glass is ideal, as it concentrates the fresh aromatics and focuses the delicate scent of berries and lilac. Chilled in the refrigerator for a few hours beforehand, the wine presents itself with clear contour and enticing freshness.

For storage, a cool, dark place without strong temperature fluctuations is recommended. Stored lying down, the screw cap remains reliably tight. Short-term storage over a few years preserves freshness and fruit, though the focus is on enjoyment in the first years after bottling. This is when this rosé shows all its radiance, lightness and the typical Palatinate Pinot Noir notes in their most intense form.
