Von Buhl

Pfalz

Our notes:

This estate was established in 1849 by Franz Peter Buhl. At the start of the 20PthP century, von Buhl wines commanded higher prices than top Bordeaux or Burgundy! Yet, as with the vast majority of German wine producers, this Estate slumped in the 70s and 80s, underperforming despite having some of the best vineyard sites in the region. Over the last fifteen years, Von Buhl has managed to return its wine quality to the highest levels, thanks primarily to significant investment in both vineyard and winery. The highly committed team headed by estate manager Stefan Weber have justified this expenditure by producing exceptional wines at every price point. They have slashed yields, increased selective harvesting (the pickers will now go through a vineyard up to five times to ensure they only pick the ripest fruit), and commenced a program of organic viticulture. The Estate's impressive portfolio of vineyards is principally located in the villages of Forst and Deidesheim and plantings are predominantly Riesling. The vineyard specific wines are very impressive while the entry level Qba is ridiculous value.
 

What the critics are saying:

"Von Buhl [has] a wonderful array of vineyards in all the major villages of the Mittelhaardt."
