Kalkofen GG is a plateau above the Grainhübel GG and is located behind the winery in Deidesheim. The soil consists of sand and - not surprisingly when you consider the name of the vineyard - limestone. The riesling sticks are on average sixty years old. The fermentation takes place in tonneau (500 liter barrels).
The juice of the wines has a high concentration but remains elegant and deep. The wines have fascinating aromas and are already receiving rave reviews from critics. Due to the extreme climate and the careful selection of the grapes, Von Winning has been able to make a very small amount of this very special vintage.
The Riesling Großes Gewächs Kalkofen lives up to its name. Chalky, pure, concentrated. Very intense and persistent on the palate. Fine balance between acidity and residual sweetness (7.9 g/l). In the glass, this Riesling has a lemon yellow color with alkyd tones in the nose, lime aromas and tropical fruit such as ripe peach, papaya and apricot. In the mouth the taste is Spicy, salty and creamy. Lots of tension due to the residual sweetness and lively acidity. Long, intense, mineral finish.
This scarce von Winning Riesling Großes Gewächs Kalkofen is a gastronomic high flyer. Delicious with fish dishes with a sweet and sour sauce, white mold cheeses & goat cheese.
Weingut Von Winning has changed name and owner several times over the years. It was founded under the name 'Deinhard', by Friedrich Deinhard (1812 - 1871) and his wife Auguste Jordan, after inheriting part of the domain of her father, Andreas Jordan's in 1848. In Deidesheim this is still referred to today as the “Jordan'sche Teilung”, where the vineyards of the winery were divided among his three children, a division that has survived to this day. The winery under the name Deinhard was continued by their son Dr. Andreas Deinhard, who in turn was succeeded by his daughter Emma, who ran the company from 1907 with her husband, Captain Leopold von Winning. Under his leadership, the winery experienced its heyday. It became a co-founder of the "Deutscher Weinbauverband" and the "Verband der Naturwein-Versteigerer", an association that is today highly regarded under the name VDP (Verband Deutscher Prädikatsweingüter). During this period the name of the domain was changed to "Hauptmann von Winning'sches Edelweingut". In 1918 the wine company became the property of Karl Josef Hoch from Neustadt an der Weinstraße. The Von Winning family did not allow him to use the name "von Winning", so it regained its old name: Dr. Deinhard.
