£16.95

Villa Wolf estate-grown Rieslings are made from single-vineyard sites in Wachenheim and Forst. They are produced in the traditional dry (Trocken) style of the Pfalz, and only one wine is made from each estate vineyard.

The village of Wachenheim lies at the center of the esteemed “Mittelhaardt” area of the Pfalz, which historically has been the source of the region’s finest wines. Here, the welldrained, weathered sandstone soils produce pure, fruit-driven wines with a distinctive stony character. The fruit for the Wachenheimer Riesling comes from a single-vineyard site, called Königswingert (“King’s Vineyard”), but is labeled only with the village name. This excellent site lies just to the north of the village and is rated as a premier cru vineyard.

Ratings & Awards,

In the Pfalz, 2019 began warm and dry, turning hot and drier in summer.
Ripening of the fruit proceeded rapidly, so we began harvest a bit
early, at the beginning of September. Due to the lack of water, the
grapes were small, with hard, dense skins. This gave nice concentration
and powerful aromatics to the fruit, but the yields were rather low.
Excellent ripeness and high acidity gives the wines freshening depth
with brilliant structure. Fermented in stainless steel; matured on the full lees for 12 months
before bottling; Light filtration before bottling. No other filtering or
fining.
