From the Producer:

Katla Wines is a micro negoce winery that I founded in 2019 in the Mosel Valley in Germany. I buy organically grown grapes and turn them into wine. I prefer working manually, like using a wooden basket press or also a vougre to destemm some of my grapes. I make wines that I like to drink, but that don’t essentially go along with the traditional style of the area that I am based at. The grapes that I purchase come from Mosel but also nearby regions like Nahe & Rheinhessen. Despite not having my own land, I do try to look after as many of the vineyards I work with as much as possible and harvest everything by hand. In the cellar I work without any additions or neither do I remove anything from the wine. It’s just alcoholic grape juice. I prefer to make my own traditions, instead of following others.
