2020 Dr. Bürklin-Wolf Reiterpfad Grand Cru

Bürklin-Wolf owns vineyards in the most famous “Lagen” of the Mittelhaardt. The company owns vineyards in various Lagen (vineyards) in the towns of Forst, Deidesheim, Ruppertsberg and Wachenheim. For the classification of dry Riesling wines, Bürklin-Wolf uses the Burgundian model of the quality pyramid. In this model, terroir, yield and degree of ripeness of the grapes are taken into account, so Grand Cru (GC) and Premier Cru are used. Bürklin-Wolf is a member of the VDP (Verband Deutscher Prädikats- und Qualitätsweingüter) but nevertheless does not use the term Grosses Gewächs.

The name "Reiterpfad" refers to a Roman cavalry trail. The intersection of two Roman roads made this place strategically important. The soil consists of sandy loam with conglomerates of variegated sandstone and limestone.

ABOUT DR BÜRKLIN-WOLFF

For centuries, wine has been made at Dr. Bürklin Wolf. On around 85 hectares, mainly Riesling is grown, which is among the best in the entire area. This family business located in the Pfalz is run by Bettina, the 22nd generation. She has implemented her grandfather's vision and started making biodynamic wine in 2001, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. The wines are therefore even more terroir-driven and exciting! In the vineyard and wine cellar, hardly anything is done with the wines, pure and distinct wines is the goal. The wines ferment and mature partly in stainless steel and partly in old wooden barrels. The wines are known for their distinct character, new style (modern) Riesling, with present acids and enormous length. READ MORE UNDER THE TAB WINERY
