The southern Palatinate with its heavy shell limestone soils is the land of Burgundy varieties. Including and especially Pinot Blanc, which even grows here in some vineyards with the status of "Grosses Gewächs'. For example in the Birkweiler Mandelberg. The location is important here in that, in addition to the one described here, there are three other single vineyards with the same name in the Palatinate alone. But back to the wine: the 2022 GG from Dr Wehrheim, which James Suckling awarded 96 points, combines the typical varietal fruit (pear, mirabelle plum) with nutty and white floral notes, a hint of caramel and some brioche. One of the best Pinot Blancs in Germany, now at the beginning of its drinking maturity with potential for many years to come.
