Description
The Korrell winery is located in the German wine-growing region of Nahe, more precisely in the municipality of Bad Kreuznach. The Korrell family is originally from Spain and has been running a mixed agricultural business for more than 250 years.
The name Johanneshof can be traced back to Johannes Korrell. He was the first in the Korrell family to start growing grapes.
In 1967 Wilfried Korrell changed the farm to exclusively viticulture. Today, in the 6th generation of the family, the Korrell vineyard is run by Martin and Britta Korrell.
The Korrell estate cultivates a total of 26 hectares of vineyards – of which Paradies, Rosenberg and St. Martin (Kreuznach), Kirschheck (Norheim), Klamm (Niederhausen), as well as In den Felsen and Königsfels (Schloßböckelheim) are single vineyard sites.
Martin Korrell works and lives day by day according to the motto “less is more”. He concentrates fully on the essentials and does what he does best. This attitude towards life is also reflected in Korrell ‘s collections. Martin Korrell finds the perfect balance, the expressiveness and the greatest depth in the few wines from classic, sophisticated grape varieties.

James Suckling – 95 points
Essence of tropical fruit here that’s very hard to resist, with mango and mangosteen dominant in this luscious composition. Serious concentration behind all this extravagance. Long, very sensual finish. Drink or hold.
