Description
Weingut Pfeffingen Fuhrmann-Eymael, as the company is called in full, is located near Bad Dürkheim, in the heart of the Palatinate. The Pfeffingen resort has a very rich wine history that goes back to 500-600 BC. The Pfeffingen winery was founded in 1622. Dating from that time is the original family coat of arms that still adorns the wine label to this day.
The Gewurztraminer Spätlese Ungstein from Weingut Pfeffingen is a great wine for lovers of the aromatic grape Gewurztraminer and wines that are off dry and half sweet. The wine is golden yellow in the glass. In the nose, the wine is aromatic with a piquant, spicy character. What immediately stands out is the purity and depth. Mild dry, elegant taste, nice spiciness, supplemented with minerals. A citrusy, gossamer acidity gives the wine elegance and the aftertaste an enormous length. This wine is bottled with a screw cap. This wine can be used as an aperitif or gastronomically: smoked, light fish, spicy cheeses, and of course perfect with (spicy) Asian cuisine.

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | De 2022 Weingut Pfeffingen Gewurztraminer Spätlese Ungstein betovert met zijn goudgele kleur en een aromatische neus vol kruidige en pittige tonen. In de smaak komt de wijn elegant en milddroog naar voren, met een mooie kruidigheid, mineraliteit en een frisse citruszuren die zorgen voor een verfrissende lengte. Deze wijn past perfect bij gerechten met gevogelte of vette vis, vooral wanneer ze bereid worden met lichte saus of in een delicate bereiding, omdat de kruidigheid en mineraliteit mooi aanvullen zonder te overheersen. Ook jonge, kruidige kazen of een lichte, pittige Aziatische keuken maken er een mooie match mee. Serveer deze wijn bijvoorbeeld bij gegrilde kip met kruiden, gestoomde zalm of een pittige Thaise curry voor een smaakvolle en harmonieus samenspel. |

Scheurebe specialty
The most important grape variety remains Riesling, which accounts for more than half of the plantings. Other white grape varieties are: Weißburgunder, Gewürztraminer and Chardonnay. In addition to white wine, powerful red wines are also produced from the Spätburgunder. The pride of the winery are the beautiful, pure noble sweet wines based on the white grape Scheurebe. These are unmistakably counted among the best noble sweet wines from Germany.
Location vineyards
The vineyards are located on the west side of the winery. The remaining vineyard property is located around the winery in a warmer, flatter area. In total it covers 13 hectares. The top vineyards include the Ungsteiner Herrenberg and the Ungsteiner Weilberg, where the soil consists of lime, marl and loess.
Grand Cru vineyard
The Ungsteiner Weilberg is also popularly referred to as “Rot Erde”/Terra Rossa/red clay because of its striking red colour. This vineyard dates back to Roman times. It is classified as “Grosses Gewächs” (Grand Cru Vineyard) and produces luscious, long-lasting wines with a piquant taste. Tends to tropical fruit in warmer years. The Ungsteiner Herrenberg also carries the classification "Grosses Gewächs" (Grand Cru). The resulting wines have a high mineral content and are very elegant.
Grosses Gewächs criteria
The conditions to qualify for the Grosses Gewächs classification are:
The vineyard must be included in the classification established at the time in 1828 by royal decree;
Only handpicking and a yield of up to 48 hectoliters per hectare are required;
Minimum sugar content of 90 degrees Oechsle;
The harvest undergoes strict quality control, both immediately after harvest and later in the cellar;
All wines are analytically and technically inspected both before and after bottling by an independent wine committee.
In short, it is not easy to feed Grosses Gewächs!
