2Naturkinder - Vater & Sohn, Franconia, Germany
Michael and Melanie left their corporate jobs behind and started making wine in Michael’s parents’ winery in 2013. After discovering their taste for natural wine, they converted the 6 hectare vineyard to organic practices. They've developed 2Naturkinder, a repertoire of wild delights which are hand-harvested, indigenous-yeasts vinification without sulphur and unfiltered.
The Vater & Sohn (German for Father & Son) is an homage to the times when Michael and his dad would work on blends together. The '23 vintage is a multi-vineyard white blend of Muller Thurgau, Bacchus and Riesling, all foot trodden and pressed shortly after before fermentation and aging between big barrels and stainless steel.
