The Weingut Münzberg Chardonnay Godramsteiner Kalkmergel 2022 is a refined, dry white wine from the Palatinate that combines Burgundian elegance with German precision. Sourced from the chalky soils around Godramstein, this Chardonnay displays ripe fruit, fresh tension, and subtle oak notes. A wine with class, balance, and a minerally, lingering finish.

Origin & terroir

The vineyards of Weingut Münzberg are located near the village of Godramstein, in the southern Palatinate. The soil consists of Kalkmergel (calcareous marl), which gives the wines their characteristic freshness, structure, and minerality. Thanks to the mild climate, the Chardonnay ripens optimally here, retaining its elegance and refined acidity—the ideal terroir for this grape.

Vinification & style

  • Fermentation: partly in stainless steel and partly in wooden barrels, for a balance between freshness and creaminess.
  • Maturation: several months on the fine lees for extra texture and complexity.
  • Style: dry, mineral and elegant, with subtle wood influences and a lively freshness.

Tasting note – Weingut Münzberg Chardonnay Godramsteiner Kalkmargel 2022

The nose offers notes of ripe apple, citrus, peach, and a hint of hazelnut . The palate is full yet refined, with a creamy texture and lively acidity that provide balance. The finish reveals light notes of butter and brioche, supported by a subtle minerality. A Chardonnay with tension, finesse, and depth—modern yet classic.

Wine and food pairings

  • Fish & seafood: turbot, salmon, scallops or lobster with butter sauce.
  • Poultry: chicken in creamy sauce, turkey or guinea fowl.
  • Vegetables & vegetarian: asparagus, mushroom risotto or roasted cauliflower.
  • Cheeses: young Comté, Emmentaler or soft goat's cheese.

Wijnhuis

The 17-hectare Weingut Münzberg is located in Landau in der Pfalz, near the French border in Alsace, about 40 km northwest of Karlsruhe. The relatively small domain produces only about 120,000 bottles per year. Since the purchase of the first vineyard by founder Jakob Kessler at the end of the last century, the domain has been owned by the Kessler family. Today, Gunter Kessler is in charge.

Weißer Burgunder (Pinot Blanc) and Grauer Burgunder (Pinot Gris) are mainly grown on the domain. But Chardonnay, Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) also feel at home here. The Chardonnay and Spätburgunder are fermented and matured here in wooden barriques of local “Palatinate oak”. The winery also owes its name to the discovery of a Roman coin in its top vineyard. These are very gastronomic wines with a Burgundian profile.
