Weißer Burgunder trocken 1,0l - A. Diehl

A radiant bright yellow hue with delicate greenish reflections greets the eye in the glass. The Pinot Blanc dry 1.0l - A. Diehl immediately appears inviting and clear. On the nose, aromas of ripe apples, juicy mirabelles and a hint of dried hay unfold. A fine floral note complements the bouquet and adds further elegance.

On the palate, the wine is crisp, light and at the same time surprisingly substantial. The fruit is precise: yellow apple, mirabelle and a subtle citrus note provide freshness. The structure is straight and focused, with clear acidity and subtle creaminess on the finish. The dryness highlights its juicy character without overshadowing the fruit.

The acidity is invigorating, finely integrated and creates a lively interplay on the tongue. Tannin plays a minor role in Pinot Blanc, being only delicately perceptible through the slight grip on the finish. The result is a harmonious, appealing white wine in a modern Palatinate style.

Production of the Pinot Blanc dry 1.0l - A. Diehl

The grapes for the Pinot Blanc dry 1.0l - A. Diehl come from selected sites in the Palatinate. The region benefits from many hours of sunshine and protection from the Haardt Mountains and the Palatinate Forest. Warm days and cool nights support the slow, even ripening of the berries.

The soils in the vineyards are varied: loess, loam and sandy components alternate. This combination provides ideal conditions for Pinot Blanc, which combines freshness, fruit and fine minerality. The vines root deeply and produce grapes that clearly express their origin.

The grapes are harvested gently, with a focus on aromatically ripe fruit. Transport to the winery takes place quickly to prevent oxidation. There, careful selection is carried out first, followed by gentle pressing of the grapes. The aim is always to achieve clean, clear must with as few bitter compounds as possible.

Fermentation takes place under temperature control in stainless steel tanks. Cool fermentation temperatures preserve the fruit-driven profile of apple, mirabelle and hay. The winery deliberately avoids ageing in wood in order to showcase the grape variety’s character in an unadulterated form.

• Stainless steel tank for maximum freshness
• Temperature-controlled fermentation
• Gentle pressing and processing
• Clear, fruit-driven ageing without the influence of wood

After fermentation, the wine remains on the fine lees for a certain period. This process provides additional depth, a supple texture and a lively mouthfeel. A. Diehl’s cellar style focuses on precision, clear fruit and high drinkability, perfectly realised in this Pinot Blanc.
