Meet Moritz Kissinger

Moritz is the definition of a new face of German wine today. After completing his studies in Geisenheim he eventually returned to his family estate in Uelversheim, Rheinhessen slowly but gradually taking over parcels from his father who at the time already understood that organic farming is the way to go.

Moritz puts a lot of effort on working with white and red Pinot varieties. During his stint at Champagne Cedric Mousse he also understood that serious grower champagne (or in his case Deutscher Winzersekt) is a matter of meticulous work from grape growing to harvest to perfect ageing. It's no surprise that his sparkling already belongs to some of Germany's most sought after only releasing his second release this year.

When we visited him late last year he also showed us his old family cellar in the centre of Uelversheim — it's a century old small cave that only allows space for a small amount of his wines but he is slowly repurposing it for his best barrels of Chardonnay (and more?) in the years to come.

Back at his family's winery we tasted through the new 2022 estate wines as well as the latest single vineyard wines from 2021. The combination of the Rheinhessen's microclimate and its diversity of soils creates wines that are full of power and razor sharp acidity. It's impressive how grown up his wines taste after only a handful of vintages back home.
