The Keller estate is located in the small town of Flörsheim-Dalsheim in the Rheinhessen wine growing region of Germany and it has been in the family for over 220 years. Many vines were planted in the 50’s and 60’s. Dual vignerons, Klaus-Peter and his wife Julia turn conventional wisdom upside down by slowing photosynthesis to achieve a long, slow ripening period. In constant pursuit of making the sublime more sublime from one vintage to the next, Klaus-Peter’s perfectionism in the vineyard and winery is rivalled by few in Germany; his personal intensity and the quality of his vineyards are almost unparalleled. Keller clearly practices some of the lowest yields in Germany these days for Rieslings, with the entire estate averaging about thirty-five hectolitres per hectare. These are crop levels in line with the philosophy of Egon Muller, but out of step with virtually every other top estate in Germany.
