There is much movement at the Wöhrwag<br />

estate: son Philipp now works in<br />

the Pfalz but in his place daughter Johanna<br />

is now on board. She describes her field<br />

of influence thus: “I learned a lot at various<br />

wine estates and now I am regaling my father<br />

with innovative ideas – from the cellar to the<br />

top vineyard sites. Calm was yesterday.” However,<br />

with parents like Christin and Hans-Peter<br />

Wöhrwag, imagination and lateral thinking<br />

come naturally. We tasted a strong range of<br />

wines, including the complex red wine blend<br />

“X”, the grippy Cabernet Franc and elegant,<br />

expressive white wines.<br />
