Very well made Riesling from a family owned winery in the region of Pfalz and 100% Biodynamically farmed. A strict method of farming that shows the vineyard as a all-encompassing living organism – creating High Quality, Low Intervention wine.
The Riesling Buntsandstein Trocken Pflüger 2023 is a biodynamic wine produced by Alex Pflüger’s estate in the Palatinate region. The 2023 vintage began with a challenging harvest due to a hot and humid summer, but the team managed to pick high-quality grapes by mid-October. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks, preserving its fresh and vibrant character. It showcases juicy peach and citrus fruit flavors, balanced by firm acidity and elegance.
Riesling is renowned for its exceptional aging potential. Over time, the wine’s primary fruity and floral notes evolve into more complex aromas and textures. With proper cellaring, the Riesling Buntsandstein Trocken can develop beautifully, gaining depth and richness while maintaining its characteristic freshness

Riesling
Riesling is a white grape variety which originated in Germany and now has plantings in many other countries including Alsace, New Zealand and Australia. Riesling is an aromatic grape variety displaying clean fruit and floral aromas, with green apple, and layered citrus flavours. It can make great varietally pure wines across the spectrum, from steely bone-dry examples to unctuous, sweet dessert wines. Its high acidity allows some examples to be extensively aged, where they can develop great complexity.

The Country
German wines are a symphony of flavors and history, offering a unique blend of tradition and innovation. Nestled along the picturesque river valleys of the Rhine and Moselle, Germany’s vineyards produce some of the world’s most elegant and aromatic wines. The star of the show is undoubtedly Riesling, celebrated for its versatility and ability to express the terroir with notes ranging from crisp green apple to luscious honeyed apricot. However, the rise of Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) has added a new dimension, bringing rich, velvety reds to the forefront.
German wines are not just about taste; they are a journey through centuries of winemaking excellence, where each bottle tells a story of the land, the climate, and the passionate vintners who craft these exquisite beverages. Whether you prefer a dry, mineral-driven white or a sweet, dessert-like nectar, German wines offer a delightful experience for every palate.
