Nava is the old name for the Nahe. Made from 100% Siegerrebe (literally “Victory Grape”), a rare German crossing that is already uncommon in Germany and closest in character to Gewürztraminer. After hand-harvesting, Christine and her team foot-trodden the whole clusters, which then macerated on the skins for three weeks without any crushing to achieve the most delicate extraction. After gentle pressing, the wine was kept in stainless steel tanks until August, when it was bottled without fining, filtration, or added sulfur. The result is a deeply aromatic orange wine, carrying notes of caramelized peach, peach jam, and lime.

Christine Pieroth丨Piri Naturel
The Pieroth family has been growing grapes in Nahe since 1781. Now it is Christine's turn to give new life to the old vines and centuries-old barrels.
Nahe is located halfway between Rheinhessen and Mosel, and appears as a kind of middle ground between the two well-known wine regions, both in terms of its geographical and natural features. Nowhere else in Germany do such extreme conditions exist, the Hunsrück mountains, although they provide protection against early spring frosts, also divert the rain in a different direction.
The composition of the soil is also unique...
