The centrepiece of August Kesseler’s portfolio is the Assmannshäuser Höllenberg, one of Germany’s most historic Pinot Noir sites, whose steep, slate-dominated slopes have been renowned for red wines for centuries. This terroir meets an expressive winemaker’s personality. The result is a hedonistic style bursting with fruit – ripe, sweet and seductive. On the palate, the wine feels full-bodied and juicy, with plenty of substance and ripe, velvety tannins that smoothly frame the generous fruit. The acidity provides the crucial backbone and, despite the wine’s richness, lends it a flattering structure and freshness.
