Hidden Gems in Bechtheim

Weingut Spiess ★ 4.0

RheinhessenRiesling, Spaetburgunder (Pinot Noir), Chardonnay, Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris), DornfelderFounded 1509Spiess familyBechtheim (Wonnegau)

Bechtheim Wonnegau family estate near Floersheim-Dalsheim and Westhofen, 43 hectares of south-facing parcels with dry Riesling, Burgunder and Dornfelder.

Tip: Visit Spiess on a Wonnegau morning before tasting Keller in Floersheim-Dalsheim; the Bechtheim valley-basin context puts the Wonnegau renaissance into a calmer frame.

Weingut Dreissigacker ★ 4.3

ORGANIC CERTIFIEDBechtheim (Wonnegau)

Jochen Dreissigacker farms approximately 30 hectares at Bechtheim under EU-Bio certification, with Riesling and Silvaner from the Wonnegau Geyersberg and Morstein slopes and a small Burgunder programme. Independent of VDP.

Tip: The Morstein Riesling is the estate's most accessible Wonnegau organic bottling; pair it with the Geyersberg Riesling to read the Bechtheim-Westhofen calcareous arc.
