Description

Bürklin-Wolf owns vineyards in the most famous “Lagen” of the Mittelhaardt. The company owns vineyards in several 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, the terroir, yield and maturity 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. This family business located in the Palatinate is run by Bettina, the 22nd generation. Implementing her grandfather's vision, she started biodynamic winemaking 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 pronounced wines is the goal. The wines ferment and mature partly in stainless steel and partly in old wooden barrels. The wines are known for a pronounced character, new style (modern) Riesling, with acidity and enormous length.

the dr. Bürklin-Wolf Riesling Trocken from the Palatinate is deep, complex and spicy with a flint, mineral bouquet. Round and elegant on the palate, it is charming, round and fruity but a very elegant and refined Riesling with a serious character. Fresh aromas of green apple and lemon with a floral note. Juicy acidity and fine minerality, very refreshing. Naturally organic / bio dynamic and with an excellent price / quality because this is from Dr. Burklin-Wolf.

The roots of the Dr. Bürklin-Wolf go back to the 16th century. The winery, with 86 hectares of vineyards, is one of the largest private estates in Germany and has been managed since 1992 by Christian von Guradze together with his wife, the heiress to the family winery. Although it had been known for its Auslese and Trockenbeerenauslesen for some time, the focus of production shifted to dry white wines, mainly vinified from Riesling. The total production concept of the traditional company Dr. Bürklin-Wolf changed fundamentally and led it back to the top of the Palatinate wines in particular through an extreme focus on quality. The cultivation of the vineyards has been converted since 2005 in accordance with biodynamic guidelines.

Zalige riesling. Fijn om een mooie bio-dynamische Riesling te vinden die niet die voor mij nare (te)zoete tonen heeft. Groot fan van dit huis
