The grapes were picked in two separate passes through the vineyard. After fermentation, the two resultant batches of fruit were transferred into a large oak cask.
Slightly reductive at first, with intense yellow fruit, spicy characters and tremendous minerality. The acidity is perfectly ripe, making the wine a delight to drink even at this early stage in its life.
Kirchenstück is the best-rated vineyard in the Pfalz. In acknowledgement of its exceptional status, the site was awarded the highest ranking during the royal Bavarian land classification of 1828. Kirchenstück benefits from its situation on the gentle slope directly adjacent to the village of Forst. The sandstone buildings and the surrounding knee-high sandstone wall absorb the sun's warmth and radiate it back towards the vines at night.
