From the football stage to the grape vines: Hummels, Gosens and Kramer in wine fever!
The football professionals Mats Hummels, Christoph Kramer and Robin Gosens have successfully embarked on a new passion - the world of wine. After a turbulent year in which each of them had their own challenges, the three athletes are now launching their own Riesling cuvée called “Herbstmeister”. This specialty is produced in the picturesque vineyards of the Zellertal in the Palatinate and has been available in the online shop since October for 29 euros. According to the manufacturer, the lateral entry into the wine industry was a “complete success” and there are already numerous dealer inquiries for the promising vintage, of which availability is limited.
A special kind of wine experience
This new step was possible because the footballers teamed up with the renowned winemakers Philipp Kuhn and H.O. Spaniards joined together. While the trio have been good friends for a long time, the idea for the wine project came about during a dinner together in Düsseldorf. Robin Gosens raves about the “really cool experience” of helping to design a wine project and creating your own wine. Christoph Kramer, who experienced a sporting lull after leaving Gladbach, found a new perspective through his passion for wine. He recently even scored his first World Cup goal with the national minor football team, showing that his career could take a new lease of life.
Hummels has also experienced a career turnaround in recent months. After difficult times at AS Roma, he is celebrating a comeback on the big football stage with good performances. The connection to wine and shared friendships not only opened up new avenues for the players, but also brought a glimmer of hope back into their sporting careers. Fans will be excited to see what happens to the three football stars' wine project as they continue to follow their journey through the ups and downs of football.
