Charta is considered a seal of quality for Rheingau Riesling and only wines that withstand strict quality testing are allowed to bear this name. It has now been overrun by the VDP classification, but the Charta wines continue to be produced by around a dozen wineries according to almost the same specifications. The dry to semi-dry wines must be made 100% from Riesling the best Rheingau vineyards. Within the four-level VDP quality pyramid, this corresponds to the Erste Lage or Grosse Lage.
Taste Profile: Quintessence of Rheingau Riesling. Nuances of citrus and vegetal notes characterize the bouquet and prepare for a racy, playful palate pleasure with a sensationally juicy finish. The white wine impresses with an extremely precise, multifaceted and racy character
Winemaking Process: Selected fruit is hand harvested, destemmed & crushed for several hours before pressing. Partial aging in traditional barrels & stainless steel tank. After long maturation on lees, for about a year, it is bottled
