Producer

Weingut Pflüger

Just a small quantity is produced from this single vineyard in Michelsberg, giving a distinctive characterful wine. Michelsberg is a five-hectare “Grosse Lage”, or Grand Cru site, with old Riesling vines planted on terraces facing south. The 2017 has an intense bouquet with toffee, caramelized pineapple and orange peel with a hint of earth. It is rich and smooth with lingering flavours of bitter orange and barley sugar. After fermentation, it spent nine months maturing in tank.
