ABOUT US
We first
discussed starting a little pop-up wine stall last year while enjoying a crisp
glass of RIESLING on a balmy summers evening. We want to promote German organic
wine in an unconventional way by collaborating with different shops, galleries
and individuals in various locations around London. The RIESLING grape makes
for a refreshing, flowery and fruity white wine with hints of mineral aromas
and VINE believes it deserves to be in the limelight.
ABOUT OUR WINES
The RHEINGAU is
one of the most distinguished wine regions of the world. Moving from east to
west, the fairly flat, dimpled landscape evolves into progressively steep
slopes.
FAUST wines come
from single vineyards. Deep loess and loam soil grows very fruity wines, even
in dry years. Different minerals in the soil, embedded in layers of slate and
gravel, create site-specific aromas and tastes. Fully organic wine-growing as
well as very intensive work in the vineyards results in healthy grapes bursting
with flavour.
When it comes to
growing different grape varieties, RIESLING, of course dominates but it is
classically completed also by WEISSBURGUNDER.
RIESLING wines
from FAUST convey the great potential of the taste sensations that this noble
vine is famous for. The defining elements are a racy acidity that is involved
in various fruit flavours (such as lime, grapefruit, apple, peach, mango) and a
distinct minerality.
The
WEISSBURGUNDER from FAUST loves the warm locations and deep, strong soil. This
dry developed, elegant and fresh wine is the ideal choice for summer evenings.
