97 Points! This shows the greatness that the Mittelhaardt section of the Pfalz is capable of! Stunning, peachy nose with hints of all manner of citrus fruit and fresh herbs.

From the importer: Grown on rare limestone soil with heavy topsoil of loam and clay. The vines are 15 to 39 years old and do grow low yields around 45 to 65 hl per hectare. It is a curious fact, that most of the wines are located on today’s french side of the border but we are still allowed to produce german wine there as the family owns the vineyards for many generations already.

The grapes were hand harvested and destemmed. Before pressing, the grapes were macerating for 12 to 24 hours days to extract all the flavors and aromas from the grape-skins into the juice. The lightly pink-hued juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks and 2400 liter oak-barrels and afterwards let on lees for almost 5 months after fermentation to gain even more flavor and complexity through the lees-contact.

93 Points! Fresh pear aromas pour from the glass of this excellent dry pinot blanc that’s so vibrant and precise. Amazing for the “humble” estate-wine category. Long, succulent and pristine finish! From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap. - JamesSuckling.com
