Two Chardonnay by Knewitz

Two bottles of wine from Knewitz stand on a wooden table. In the background, a wine glass and a stack of books can be seen; corks and waiter's corkscrews lie in front of the bottles.

We're drinking two bottles of Chardonnay from Weingut Knewitz. One as a sparkling Brut Nature from 2018 and a Chardonnay Réserve 2020.

Three Bottles Wechsler

Three bottles of wine from Weingut Wechsler stand on a wooden table. The labels are simple, with black lettering and a few splashes of color. In front of them lies a cork next to a waiter's knife, behind them stands a wine glass and a stack of books.

Thematically matching the recent Maxime Open, we are drinking three bottles from Wechsler Winery in Rheinhessen: a Fehlfarben Scheurebe 2023, a Sexy MF Pinot Rosé 2022, and a Silvaner Alte Reben from 2021.

Maxime Open 2025

The view from the vineyards over Saulheim in Rheinhessen. Vineyards in the foreground and background, with a few houses in between.

We were once again out and about in Rheinhessen and, at the Maxime Open 2025, this time around Saulheim, sampled wines across the entire region.
