ABOUT THIS WINE
The Dr. Bürklin-Wolf Riesling trocken is an estate wine from Pfalz, Germany, produced by a winery with a history dating back to 1597. The estate is a pioneer in biodynamic viticulture, holding certification since 2005. This particular Riesling is notable for its inclusion of grapes from declassified top vineyard sites, offering a high-quality expression of the Mittelhaardt region's terroir, specifically from Wachenheim, Deidesheim, and Ruppertsberg. The 2024 vintage, despite challenging weather patterns, is expected to yield elegant Rieslings with concentrated aromas, reflecting the cool-climate character of the region. The winery is one of Germany's largest privately-owned estates, emphasizing a philosophy of creating 'slow wines' that fully express their origin.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Dr. Bürklin-Wolf Riesling trocken is produced using grapes from biodynamically farmed estate vineyards. The harvest is entirely by hand. Vinification involves temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and large, old wooden barrels, with a portion of fermentation occurring spontaneously with native yeasts. The wine is then aged in both stainless steel and large wooden casks. This approach aims to capture the essence of the terroir and produce wines that develop slowly and express their origin with clarity.
