Weingut

Das Pfälzer Weingut wurde 1994 von der Familie Schneider in Ellerstadt gegründet. Heute bewirtschaftet Markus Schneider 90 Hektar Rebfläche und etablierte seine Weine weltweit.

Jahrgangsbericht

Budbreak and flowering each corresponded perfectly with the longstanding averages, although July and August then brought a long, dry stretch to the vines in the Pfalz. Again, after a very hot summer, the harvest team was very happy to pick the grapes with a perfect ripeness. Rich aromas and such a grateful vintage are in comparison to the last one.
