Our Review

Exactly this, "the daily..." this you can wonderfully drink every day. Okay, maybe not every day, drink in moderation of course. But it has a beautiful balance between acidity and fruit, and a little less of that typical German Pinot / Spätburgunder tar-like quality. Simply very delicious.

— Roel

Pinot Noir is sometimes called the "Kind of Red Wines." This is because the grape thrives particularly well in cooler wine-growing regions and is particularly demanding in cultivation and winemaking. Originally from Burgundy, it is also grown in the Rheingau region, where August Kesseler is based, resulting in highly complex and excellent wines.

The best winery in the Rheingau region

When August Kesseler took over his parents' winery, founded in 1924, he was only 19 years old. Traditionally, the estate primarily produced bulk wine, and the vineyard area was just over six hectares. Today, under Augustus's leadership, the estate has become one of the flagship producers in the Rheingau region and has also built an impressive international reputation. The estate encompasses 80 hectares of vineyards in some of the Rheingau's finest locations. Max Himstedt, who joined the team in 1989, is the estate's chief winemaker and has fostered the production of world-class wines.

How does the August Kesseler The Daily August Pinot Noir taste?

The Pinot Noir grapes for this red wine come from the steep slopes of Lorch, Rüdesheim, and Assmannshausen in the Rheingau. The soil consists of slate and Taunus quartzite, allowing the grapes to develop unique characteristics that are reflected in the flavor. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The Daily August Pinot Noir is then aged in oak barrels. Quality is continuously maintained throughout the production process, with regular tastings taking place. If the quality is not high enough, the bottles are not labeled August Kesseler. The result is a light ruby-red wine with aromas of black cherries and blueberries. This continues in the flavor, with soft, fruity notes of cassis and a subtle spice.
