Dr Burklin-Wolf Description
Vineyards:Our house Riesling from the Estate’s own vineyards on the foothills of the Pfalzmountains from the villages ofWachenheim, Deidesheim and Ruppertsberg. On these slopes, our vines enjoy an almost mediterranean microclimate and an excellent supply of minerals and water.This Riesling is the perfect introduction to the world of Dr. Bürklin-Wolf. Excellent, a big wine for a smallprice.
Classification:We have created a quality pyramid for our wines using ratings from the Royal Bavarian Vineyard Classification of 1828. Our quality philosophy is based on the Burgundian “Cru” system. The G.C. and P.C. Rieslings are growing in our most valuable vineyard sites. Below these are the village Rieslings, the Estate Riesling rounds off the quality pyramid.
Biodynamics: Out of respect for our vineyards and their wines we have worked biodynamically since 2005.
Tasting Note:Fresh aromas of apple and lemon with a florale note. Juicy acidity, fine minerality, very refreshing.
Food pairing: With light mediterranean cuisine, fresh salads and shellfish.
James Suckling: 90 Points
This is a bright and composed riesling with plenty of rich and fresh, ripe yellow-fruit aromas. The palate has plenty of fleshy, pithy yellow-peach and guava flavors. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink now.
Wine Enthusiast: 88 Points
Earthier complexities of pollen and pine frond accent flavors of lime and green apple in this slim, steely dry Riesling. Medium bodied and crisp on the palate, it's an easy-drinking, refreshing sip with a slightly savory finish. Anna Lee C. Iijima
Wine Spectator: 88 Points
A subtle, mineral-driven style, displaying notes of wet stone, sea salt and thyme, with crisp apple flavors at the core. The finish is focused, echoing with a mint accent. Drink now through 2024. 8,300 cases made, 650 cases imported. — AZ
