Carol and Erik are passionate about the nature of their Weingut Riffel Pinot Blanc. They manage 16 hectares of vineyards in a biodynamic manner in Bingen am Rhein. Their top locations include the legendary Scharlachberg with Katharinenzins. They believe firmly in bio-dynamic principles because they want to preserve the planet earth for our children. The more soil activity with earthworms and micro-organisms, the healthier and better aerated the soil is. The vines appreciate this and thrive better. The more different plants , flowers and herbs grow in the vineyard, the more diverse the animal and insect world develops . This is good for the environment and perfect for their wine! Weiss Burgunder, or Pinot Blanc,  is a grape typically grown in the Rheinhessen wine region. A lovely combination of pear and fleshy peach flavours combined with a waft of lemon zest and almond meal which is typical to Pinot Blanc. Definitely worth giving Weingut Riffel a try. We also sell their organic Dornfelder and Pinot Gris. Pair with: Soft cheese like brie or goats cheese with truffle. Cream based pasta’s will also work.
