Zwei Herzen Scheurebe trocken - Weingut Hammel

The barrel-aged Zwei Herzen Scheurebe from the wine-growing region of the Pfalz presents itself in the glass with a brilliant light yellow. The first nose of the Zwei Herzen Scheurebe reveals notes of mirabelles, oranges and grapefruits. The fruity overtones of the bouquet are joined by barrel-matured hints such as additional fruity-balsamic nuances.

Weingut Hammel’s Zwei Herzen Scheurebe tastes pleasantly dry. It was bottled with 7.4 grams of residual sugar. As you would expect from a wine, this German wine delights, despite all its dryness, with a finely tuned balance. Flavor does not necessarily need a lot of sugar. Balanced and complex, this crisp and light white wine presents itself on the palate. Thanks to its distinctive fruit acidity, the Zwei Herzen Scheurebe reveals itself on the palate as exceptionally fresh and lively. The finish of this white wine from the Pfalz wine-growing region, more precisely from Kirchheim, ultimately convinces with a good echo. The aftertaste is also accompanied by mineral notes from the limestone- and clay-dominated soils.

Vinification of the Zwei Herzen Scheurebe by Weingut Hammel

The basis for the balanced Zwei Herzen Scheurebe from the Pfalz is grapes of the Scheurebe variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in the Pfalz. Here, the vines sink their roots deep into soils of limestone and clay. After harvesting, the grapes are brought to the winery as quickly as possible. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in large wooden casks at controlled temperatures. After it is complete, the elegant Zwei Herzen Scheurebe is matured for several more months in oak barrels.
