English: Scheu Wine Estate Spanish: Explotación vinícola Scheu Dutch: Wijnhoeve Scheu French: Domaine viticole Scheu
The Weinhof Scheu, run by Klaus Scheu, is a family business based in the Palatinate in Schweigen-Rechtenbach, with a special cross-border location. A large part of the vineyards extends into the neighboring Alsace region in France. The philosophy of the Wineryfocuses on a precise appellation and the individual character of each terroir in order to create wines of the highest quality. Klaus Scheu took over the winery in 1994 from his father
Günter Scheu . He places great value on detail-focused work in the vineyards and low yields to maximize the concentration and density of the aromas in the wines., The terroir of the Weinhof is extremely diverse and includes soils of yellow and blue clay, limestone, quartz, sandstone, chalk, and slate. These soil types are oriented differently and contribute to the wines' unique character. The vines are up to 50 years old, and varieties such as, Riesling, Pinot BlancPinot Gris
Pinot Noir
, as well as Scheurebe and Gewürztraminer, are grown. In the cellar, great importance is placed on craft precision, with both stainless steel and wooden barrels used, and fermentation takes place without time pressure. The result is expressive wines that reflect the `Terroir` of their plots, even in more challenging vintages. The Weinhof Scheu is particularly specialized in Riesling, which accounts for 33% of the cultivation area, as well as Pinot Noir, which together with other Pinot varieties makes up 50%. Around 80% of the harvest is done manually. Each year, around 100,000 bottles of wine are produced..
Delicate aroma of ripe pears, a hint of herbs and fine spice. On the palate balanced, with mild acidity and pleasant drinkability.Perfect for salads, white fish – or simply for a relaxed evening on the sofa.

Pinot Blanc
Pinot Blanc has a restrained, subtly fruity character with typical notes of apple, pear and citrus fruit, occasionally complemented by almond and delicate floral nuances. In the glass, it usually appears pale yellow to straw yellow, sometimes with greenish reflections. A mild to lively acidity and subtle creaminess shape its structure; tannin plays hardly any role in classic white winemaking.
Typical growing regions include Baden, Palatinate and Rheinhessen as well as South Tyrol, Austria and Alsace. Depending on the site and ageing, the style ranges from fresh and linear to full-bodied and creamy. Cooler sites favour firmer acidity, while warmer locations often produce riper fruit. Oak ageing can add spicy or lightly toasted nuances.
Usually made in a dry style, Pinot Blanc pairs effortlessly with vegetable dishes, fish and white meat. Fuller-bodied versions also work well with creamy sauces.
