Falstaff 93 Points
The biodynamic estate from winemaker Alex Pflüger cultivates on 40 hectares the best vineyard sites of the wine region Palatine
The year started early with sufficient water resources and high temperatures already in April. As a result, they had the earliest flowering ever. Summer was dry and hot with nearly perfect ripening conditions. Everyone was looking forward to harvest. The vintage was gathered early almost everywhere, but the Pfalz region was really early. We started by the end of August and were finished by the first few days of October. If 2018 is potentially great anywhere, it’s in the Pfalz.
Grapes from estate owned vineyards in the Dürkheimer district; weathered red sandstone in sun-exposed locations.
Single bow method; fermentation in stainless steel tanks
