Vintage 2025 – A year of recovery

Following a frost-affected previous year, the Saale-Unstrut region began 2025 with an unusually good fruit set – the vines had recovered. A summer with comparatively high rainfall led to vigorous growth and rapid development of the grapes. As a result, work in the vineyard once again became a decisive factor: leaf management, plant protection and careful yield regulation were essential. The harvest began in mid-September, initially hesitantly, as the must weights of many common varieties were not yet satisfactory. Rainfall at the end of September then accelerated the harvest, making selective picking particularly important. The new, robust grape varieties proved to be exceptionally healthy and were able to ripen on the vine for a long time. Following the year of light frost, 2025 brought significantly larger yields once again and promises fruity, rather slender wines with the lively freshness of the Saale-Unstrut region.
