NATURAL WINES BY LUKAS KRAUSS
Lukas Krauss makes his wines in Lambsheim, a small village on the edge of the Pfalz wine road. His parents founded the estate in 1984. Lukas trained at Müller-Catoir, made his first wines in 2008 and became co-owner of the family estate in 2016. The hat is his trademark and a link to his grandfather, which is why he signs his bottles as Mann mit Hut.
He has a soft spot for old regional grapes like Kerner, Müller-Thurgau, Silvaner, Herold and Scheurebe, and since 2018 he has made those wines with nothing added. The Landschwein blends, named after old farm pig breeds, are mostly raised in steel. Single-variety wines like Silvaner, Grüner Veltliner and Lemberger age in used oak and local acacia barrels. His favourite is sparkling: the Cremant de Pinot is Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier and we also love his Rose Sekt.
