The 2020 Wrap Up

Now that 2020 is behind us (and we have 2020 vision!) it’s time for a year-end wrap up.

Overall, the 2020 vintage produced a very high quality throughout Germany. The country experienced a warm and sunny spring, but a frost in mid-May, which unfortunately resulted in damage and yield loss in some regions.

The main grape harvest began at the end of August, which is approximately 8 to 10 days earlier than average. Good weather continued throughout the summer into September. According to the German Wine Institute, “the red varieties in particular benefited from the warm weather… [and] will get even better as they further ripen in the cellar.” The vintage was crowned on November 30th with a successful harvest of frozen grapes for ice wine.

In total, the harvest volume of 2020 is two percent lower than the 10-year average due to the aforementioned frost. The pricing is also rather stable without including the impacted regions.

Prost und zum Wohl!

Klaus Bellinghausen makes sure King Frosch All Natural Wines meet his strict guidelines for taste, drinkability and all natural components. Prost!

Love wines, hate headaches? If you love wines but are getting tired of over-oaked Chardonnays and big reds with too much alcohol and a harsh finish, you should try King Frosch All Natural Wines. The wines you drink should make you feel good, not give you a headache or be hard to swallow. Fresh, young, fun, yet old world at the same time, the King Frosch line of All Natural wines is converting wine, cocktail and beer drinkers into wine lovers.  These wines are not pretentious or snobby. They are just as likely to appeal to a “big red” wine drinker who never drinks white wine, as they are to white wine drinkers who are tired of oak, oak and more oak.  Most importantly, many of our customers say they don’t get headaches when they enjoy our wines.

ALL NATURAL ESTATE WINES

King Frosch evolved from a partnership between BBG Wines and several small to medium sized family vineyards located  in Rheinland Pfalz and the Rheinhessen grape growing regions of Germany.  Today the King Frosch line features over 50 different wines, something for every palate.  From dry and fruity Rieslings to amazing rare reds and sparkling wines, we have it all.  Plus, our award-winning ice-wines shouldn’t be missed.

DISCOVER THE OTHER SIDE OF GERMAN WINE

BBG Wines owner, Klaus Bellinghausen, developed the King Frosch brand in order help more people discover the great tastes of German wines.  “It’s still hard to explain to people that not all German wines are sweet! Or that we have red wines!”

CRAFTED ACCORDING TO OLD WORLD TRADITIONS

King Frosch wines are produced according to strict German wine laws and feature the lowest histamine and sulfite levels in the world.  How low? Only 20 parts per million, in comparison to U.S. produced wines which can have 320 parts per million.  The majority of King Frosch wines are fermented in stainless steel tanks instead of oak barrels, preventing the addition of histamines from oak.

NATURAL MEANS FEWER WINE HEADACHES

King Frosch wines deliver pure tastes, with the lowest levels for histamines and sulfites and no artificial flavors, coloring or sugars that do not naturally occur.  Our repeat customers call them “the no headache wines.” King Frosch wines are clean and refreshing.
