Wittmann Philipp

Producer description of "Weingut Wittmann"

The winery is located in the municipality of Westhofen (Wonnegau area) in the German wine-growing region of Rheinhessen. Viticulture has been known in the family since 1663. Philipp Wittmann and his wife Eva share the management of the estate with Philipp's parents, Günter and Elisabeth Wittmann. The vineyards cover 30 hectares of vines in the Westhofen sites of Aulerde, Brunnenhäuschen, Kirchspiel and Morstein. About half of the vineyards are planted with Riesling, Silvaner, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay. Quality criteria are low yields and selective hand harvesting in several passes. The vineyards have been cultivated according to ecological principles since 1990 and since 2004 consistently according to the guidelines of biodynamic viticulture. This includes, for example, uncompromising renunciation of herbicides, synthetic chemical fungicides, insecticides and easily soluble mineral fertilisers.
