Wine Description

Why the name “Fuchsentanz” (“Fox Dance”)? It was inspired by the German expression which directly translates to “where Fox and Rabbit say goodnight”, in other words, a remote place out in the sticks. Though not a vineyard designation, Fuchsentanz is the name long associated with our most approachable Riesling. The grapes grow predominantly on loess soils, which provide the perfect foundation for the fresh, elegant style of Riesling we aim for. Juicy freshness, a touch of residual sugar (3–4 g/l) to balance the lively acidity, and plenty of fruit make Fuchsentanz a charming wine that delights even in its youth. Yet it remains unmistakably Diwald: multifaceted, authentic, and a true reflection of its origin.

Winery

We love our village of Grossriedenthal. It is the origin and the home of our wines. The surrounding countryside is our little world in which we wine growers farm various different sites. Since 1976, organic farming has been the foundation of our activities today, with biodynamic winemaking becoming part of our philosophy in 2023. We might look back, sideways, but we always keep our sights on the future. With our trust in nature, the joy we feel when working in the vineyards and the passion for making something extraordinary out of our grapes, we are creating wines that say a lot about their origins and about us. Honest, authentic and full of life. We are a member of OETW & Respekt BIODYN.
