Production of the Blanc de Noirs - A. Diehl

The grapes for the Blanc de Noirs come from selected vineyards of the A. Diehl winery in Edesheim in the Palatinate. The sunny yet not overheated climate allows for a long ripening period during which the grapes develop intense aromas. Cool nights preserve the freshness and pronounced acidity that define the style of this wine. The soils consist predominantly of loess and sand, with occasional limestone, lending the wine finesse and a delicate mineral character.

The grapes are harvested with great care to ensure that only fully ripe and aromatically expressive fruit is used. The red grapes are quickly taken to the press so that contact between the juice and skins remains brief. This gentle pressing process produces the delicate rosé-coloured juice that gives the wine its characteristic hue and refined fruitiness.

In the cellar, the A. Diehl winery relies on gentle, quality-focused vinification. Fermentation takes place under temperature-controlled conditions in stainless-steel tanks. This preserves the pure fruit of raspberry, redcurrant and the herbal notes with clarity and authenticity. Maturation on the fine lees over a certain period creates the wine’s characteristic velvety richness and gives it additional depth and structure. Oak is deliberately kept in the background so that freshness and clarity remain at the forefront.

The style of the A. Diehl winery places great importance on drinking pleasure and authenticity. Precise fruit, varietal character and a clear sense of origin define the Blanc de Noirs. The result is a modern, characterful rosé wine that makes the Palatinate perceptible with every sip.
