The passion for good and great wine is practically inborn in the owners of the wine estate. Dr. Peter Pauly, born in 1939, has a Ph.D. in agricultural science and is the offspring of the long-standing wine families Bergweiler and Prüm, first mentioned in official records in 1156.

The vineyards are mainly on steep, difficult-to-cultivate river valley hillsides and are planted predominantly with late maturity Riesling grapes, which place high demands on their location. A small percentage of the vineyards are planted with Müller-Thurgau and Spätburgunder (like Pinot Noir), which are bottled either as a remarkable red wine, as a Weissherbst (a special rosé) or as a pressed white summer wine. These wines have proven to be popular additions to the already diversified collection of Riesling white wines.

Tasting notes

The noseboast a strong fruitiness of flavors like ripe peach and apricot. Fine petrol notes underline the character and the good aging potential.

Rating

" Powerful and racy, with mineral and graphite overtones to the plush ripe peach and apricot flavors. There's a steely note midpalate, with plenty of citrus zest on the finish. Complex and well-crafted. Drink now through 2035. 300 cases made." Wine Spectator 94 Points
