Portrait of Anne Junglen
i. Biography
Coming Up
Riesling has been the throughline at Ackermann...das Weingut in Zeltingen-Rachtig since 1993, and Anne Junglen has worked inside that focus with purpose ever since. The estate itself dates to the mid-1950s, when Kurt and Doris Ackermann established it; Junglen now serves there as winemaker and co-owner at Weingut Ackermann. In a house like this, lineage is not decoration. It is the working frame: continuity held together by patience, repetition, and the discipline of staying with one grape over time.
Where They Are Now
At Ackermann...das Weingut in Zeltingen-Rachtig, the work is anchored in the vineyard, and Anne Junglen’s role as winemaker reflects that emphasis. Riesling asks for precision and restraint, and the estate’s method is stated plainly: "The quality of our wines is created in the vineyard, not in the cellar." That approach places trust where the raw material begins, before intervention has a chance to overtake it. Time is treated as part of the process, not an obstacle to it. "We give our wines the time they need," the estate says, and the line describes a cellar that allows wines to settle into themselves. Junglen’s style sits with that logic: clear, measured, and unwilling to rush fruit or structure into place.

Signature
Riesling at this estate is not presented as a single expression, but as a set of distinct readings of site and style. Junglen’s signature wines include Zeltinger Schloßberg Riesling Spätlese fruchtsüß, Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett trocken, and Zeltinger Deutschherrenberg Riesling Kabinett feinherb. The range shows how sweetness, dryness, and delicacy can be kept separate without losing coherence, with each cuvée holding its own register.
In Their Words “The quality of our wines is created in the vineyard, not in the cellar.” “Come by, taste, enjoy, and get to know us personally.”
