The Pfalz lies between the Haardt Mountains and the River Rhine in southwest
Germany, just north of the Alsace. Like Alsace, the mountains protect the area
from cold and wet Atlantic weather, making it one of the warmer and drier areas
of Germany. Grapes do well here and it’s possible to ripen red varietals
consistently. The Pinot Noir for this wine is sourced from a single, south-facing
vineyard in the Haardt mountains. Soils are chalk and clay. Vines are trained
Guyot.
