The Rebholz style aims to be as transparent a translation of vintage and site as possible; the house style, honed now over three generations, is bone dry, crystal clear, pure and unadulterated. Possessing some of the finest vineyard sites in the Pfalz on a variety of different soils, Hansjorg and his team craft a broad range of delicious wines.

2018 Riesling 'im Sonnenchein' Trocken GG
Usually $149 - Special Offer $139
"Profound minerality and depth of aroma here, with everything from pumice to chalk to decayed marl. Lemons, limes, citrons and yuzu run amok. The acidity punctures the citrus fruit like a balloon on the palate, allowing it to seep out flavor with explosive, rapid flare. Full-bodied but delicate and incredibly refined and elegant. Drink now or hold for a long time."

2017 Riesling 'Kastanienbusch' Trocken GG
Usually $190 - Special Offer $179
"In order to describe the herbal notes in the nose of this wine to you properly, I would need to spend the whole evening studying them! Rose hips and wild berries, plus a hint of passion fruit. Crystalline finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Respekt certified. Drink or hold."

"The wine shows the perfect interplay between maturity and minerality, fruit and acidity, as well as density and elegance. As is typical for the area, the scent is characterized on the one hand by the soil with its distinctive mineral aromas - smoke, pepper, flint, hay, tea, herbs, and on the other hand by the Riesling grape variety citrus, apple, peach and apricot aromas. This double game is also repeated in terms of taste: the grape variety contributes the fruity and the soil the herbal-spicy, mineral taste. Like all Rebholz wines, the wine has great storage potential."
