Description
Reichsrat von Buhl has been a family-owned winery for more than 150 years. Established in 1849 by Franz Peter Buhl, the winery is well-regarded for crafting terroir-driven, timeless wines, sourced from premier vineyard sites in the Pfalz villages of Deidesheimer and Forster. The estate quickly gained acclaim on the international level; in fact, it was a Von Buhl Riesling that was used to toast the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869. Since 2013, the Von Buhl team has been led by technical director Mathieu Kauffmann and viticultural manager Werner Sebastian. Today, Reichsrat von Buhl has around 52 hectares under vine. The estate is certified organic and an active member of the prestigious VDP (Association of German Prädikat Wine Estates).
100% Pinot Noir, the grapes were destemmed and left on the skins for 8–14 hours before being pressed. The juice was fermented and matured in a combination of used barriques and stainless steel. Bright pink hue. Inviting aromas of red berry fruit. Fresh and fruity on the palate, with flavors of fresh strawberries, raspberries and watermelon, a veritable feast of ripe, red summer fruits. Vibrant and focused, with bright, mouthwatering acidity and a long, fruit-laden finish. This charming Rosé is positively delicious and a perfect summer wine.
