Karl Pfaffmann - Riesling | German White Wine

Riesling is a light-skinned, aromatic grape of German origin which is – if the majority of top wine critics are to be believed – the world's finest white wine grape variety.
Pfalz is a key wine producing region in western Germany, located between the Rhein/Rhine river and the low-lying Haardt mountain range (a natural continuation of the Alsatian Vosges). It covers a rectangle of land 45 miles (75km) long and 15 miles (25km) wide. To the north lies Rheinhessen; to the south, the French border and Alsace.
In terms of both quality and quantity, Pfalz is one of Germany's most important regions, and one which shows great promise for the future. An increasing proportion of Germany's finest Riesling and Pinot Noir (Spätburgunder) come from Pfalz vineyards, and the region generates more everyday Landwein and Deutscher Wein than any other region by far
