IN STOCK
Grapes Pinot Noir
Colour Red
Origin Germany, Rheinhessen
ABV 13%
Vineyard Essenheim

Gorgeously expressive and fragrant with intense cherry and wild strawberry fruit. In the mouth the wine has some lovely weight, with a sleek fruit profile, red fruits, earth and spice, a bit of sinew from the tannins and then a lively acid balance, sapid and rich and long. L&S (Jul 2025)

DELIVERY SERVICE

The cherry-colored 2021 Teufelspfad Essenheim Spätburgunder shows an elegant, tart cherry and dark berry aroma intertwined with toasty, slightly oaky and peppery notes and cassis nuances. Silky and juicy, with a structure of fine tannin and acidity, this is a full-bodied, intense and vivid Spätburgunder with a tight and refreshing character and intense, stimulatingly saline finish with tart sour cherry aromas on the aftertaste. The wine is mainly based on fruit from 15- to 25-year-old vines rooting in a southwest-facing slope with limestone and calcareous marl soils. Natural cork. Tasted in October 2025. Drinking range: 2026 - 2039 Rating: 92 Stephan Reinhart, The Wine Advocate, erobertparker.com (Nov 2025)

Weingut Braunewell

François Breiniville fled 17th Century France's Huguenot persecution to settle in Essenheim, just south west of Mainz.
It took until the 1960's for Adam Braunewell to start bottling the wines from his family's vineyards and, today, he helps his children and grandchildren run this excellent estate and tend their flagship vineyards of Blume and Teufelspfad (the Devil's path!)
