Dr. Burklin-Wolf

This is the largest family-owned wine estate in Germany, with 110 hectares of vineyards in the Pfalz Mittelhardt, including many of the best sites in Wachenheim, Forst, Deidesheim and Ruppertsberg. The Gaisbohl site is owned entirely by Bürklin-Wolf.

Even though this estate produces first-class sweet wines, the site is most famous for its dry Rieslings. Winemaker Fritz Korr ferments hand picked grapes in wooden casks at very low temperatures for as long as 3 months. This results in intense, steely, dry whites that are almost Alsatian in style. They age beautifully.
