NIKLAS RUCKRICH

Niklas Rückrich is a third-generation Winzer from Eckelsheim. In 2016, after his studies, for which he did internships at Ziereisen in Baden and Pranzegg in Südtirol, he took charge of winemaking at the family business. Growing Riesling, Silvaner and Müller-Thurgau, as well as the Burgunder-Rebsorten, on volcanic rock in Rheinhessen's northwest, he gradually developed a personal style with which he now steps into the limelight for the first time, under his own name and label. Exerting as little influence as possible, both in the vineyard and cellar, he makes a range of wines that took our breath away.
