MUSKAT OTTONEL IN THE MEES WINE ESTATE

This grape variety, which is not typical for the Nahe region, was established in the winery by Roland Mees' grandfather, Heinrich Mees,

the last mayor of Bosenheim before the incorporation by the city of Bad Kreuznach in 1969, in his youth.

A small number of vines is still preserved today and we obtain high-quality grapes for this white wine rarity through multiple yield reductions, defoliation of the grape zone and a long ripening period.
