Tim Fröhlich makes some of the greatest dry wines in all of Germany.
Schäfer-Fröhlich's signature is force and intensity combined with ruthlessly sharp detail. Every edge feels like it's been sharpened and brought into focus. The style works wonderfully with Stromberg.

Since its debut vintage in 2012, the Stromberg GG has competed with the Felseneck GG for the honor of Schäfer-Fröhlich's top dry bottling. The Stromberg is stylistically very different from Felseneck. It's a much more expansive and muscular expression with dark, staining minerality. The entire staff was recently floored by a 2020 Stromberg GG.
The volcanic site was purchased from Tim Fröhlich's uncle, which is home to very old vines, including ungrafted ones. The site produces powerhouse wines with verve and intense mineral punch. The 2022 Stromberg GG is explosive and intense. For all of its concentration and drive, the wine manages a remarkable amount of finesse and precision.
For over a decade, we held Schäfer-Fröhlich as one of Germany's top talents. The 2022 Stromberg GG is yet another example of the elite level that Tim Fröhlich works at.
