Hofmann Sauvignon Blanc trocken Rheinhessen 2024
Sauvignon Blanc is Jürgen Hofmann's most important wine for us. Few German winegrowers make such sovereign wines from Sauvignon Blanc grapes, that became fashionable again in recent years. Most German interpretations are over-aromatic, too fruity and therefore cheesy. Not so with Jürgen Hofmann. Of course there is fruitness typical of the Sauvignon Blanc, but also a lot of freshness and clarity. It's not without reason that Hofmann quotes the growing regions of New Zealand with the kiwi on the label. Gooseberry, white currant, amalfi lemon, fresh herbs. Juicy, round, with an immediate presence. This wine goes very well with fresh cheese and slightly spicy seafood dishes.

Hofmann
Carolin and Jürgen Hofmann run the two wineries of their families together. The Willems-Willems winery from Konz an der Saar, as well as the Hofmann winery from Appenheim in the Rhine-Hesse region. Typical for Saar, Willems-Willems stands for acid-fresh, mineral Riesling, whereas Hofmann from northern Rheinhessen is more famous for Burgundy varieties and Sauvignon Blanc, although you should not forget about the Riesling, which is quite charming, too. Both wineries are known for there great 'Lagenweine', made of hand-picked grapes that grow in the best locations, as well as very good terroir-related 'Gutweine'. And year after year, they know to impress with the really outstanding quality of their entry-level wines. The varietal estate wines are self-explanatory, confidently vinified, and always at a high level.
