From the German vintage 2019 there will be an ice wine after all. As the Zimmerle Winery from Remstal in Wuerttemberg informed the German Wine Institute on March 3, 2020, it had already picked Riesling ice wine grapes at minus eight degrees Celsius with a must weight of 155 degrees Oechsle on January 22. According to the winery, the harvest was about 70 litres. This had been possible because one of Jens Zimmerle's vineyards had a so-called "cold hole" with a particularly cold microclimate. The DWI had reported that 2019 was the first vintage in German wine history in which no ice wine was produced due to the mild winter.
