If you’ve ever wondered why Pinot Blanc holds court alongside Chardonnay and Aligoté in Burgundy and Champagne, this wine is the answer. Dr. Simone Adams’ 2022 Weissburgunder is bright and focused, exuding citrus blossom, lemon peel, and white cherry up front, with layers of yellow peach, pear compote and melon rolling down the back. It’s got this creamy texture that feels lush for a moment - then boom, the acidity kicks in and everything tightens up a bit. Salty, structured, and full of mineral detail. There’s heaps going on flavour-wise: green walnuts, fresh herbs like tarragon and chervil, flint and smoke too. This one comes from two plots: one clay-heavy and east-facing, one west-facing with more limestone, giving the wine both its depth and that salty snap of minerality.  Aged for a year on lees (steel and oak), it’s got good grip as well. If you’re partial to a bit of Chardonnay, this one’s going to hit the mark.

About the Winemaker
Dr Simone Adams | Adams Wein

Dr. Simone Adams is one of those winemakers whose wine you taste once and never forget. Based in Ingelheim, in the far north of Germany’s Rheinhessen, Simone took over her family’s vineyards in 2010 after her father passed away. She farms just 10 hectares, working biodynamically, with 40-45 year old vines that have been spared the overhauls seen in other parts of Germany. Her ferments are wild, wines unfined and unfiltered... terroir-driven,  full of texture and life. You can physically feel how connected she is to her land and her vines.

Ingelheim sits in a little “knee” of the Rhein valley, just 5km from the river, with vineyards that slope gently east to west across limestone and clay soils. It’s a spot that gets good airflow, a cool climate, and protection from wild weather. It’s also a bit of an underdog region - less flashy than its famous neighbours, but home to serious winemaking talent. And Dr. Simone Adams is leading the charge. Her estate, Adams Wein, has become one of the standout names in Ingelheim, known locally for her unwavering commitment to quality, and a vineyard-first approach.
