ON THE ROAD - Master of Wine does Pfalz DEEP DIVE and Tasting

Love to see you on the road!! Great video. My wine education continues.

What a great video. I traveled through this region several years back and the wine was stunning. The only thing that you didn’t capture was how beautiful some of the small towns along the weinstrasse really are. I can’t remember all the towns I passed through but Maikammer and Saint Martin come to mind. I can’t recommend this region enough if you want to travel and combine lovely wine with scenic towns and countryside.

Konstantin, I've really been enjoying your videos. I have had a long love affair with German wines, as I was stationed in Darmstadt between 1997-2000. What makes the Pfalz special to me is Weissburgunder. I first fell in love with a 2009 Meßmer Im Goldnen Jost GG back in 2012, and was crushed when Terry Theiss stopped importing it to the US. Since that time I've shifted over to the Seehof Weissburgunder Trocken 'R' as my "go-to". The German wine I wish I could more easily access here in the US is Weltner's "Hoheleite" Sylvaner GG. It's such a special wine. Thank you for taking the time to produce these special & informative videos.

The Pfalz is by far my favorite wine growing region to visit. I live an hours drive from the Mosel / Saar, Pfalz and Nahe. Each region is very unique, but the Pfalz is special and just has that little something that always pulls me east.

My family comes from the Pfalz. Ruppertsberg and Königsbach an der Weinstraße to be more precise. They had their own winery near Deidesheim and also a restaurant in Landau. I love revisiting that part of beautiful Deutschland. So, what makes the Pfalz special for me is the fact that it is Heimat through and through.

It is worth mentioning that chancellor Kohl introduced some of his illustrious guests to "Pfälzer Saumagen", of course elevated to a whole new level be Michelin star gastronomy. I know this region quite well but never had "Saumagen" but I can imagine that a mineral Pfälzer Riesling will cut through these heavy dishes very easily. Another bonmot of the late chancellor: "Essen ist die Erotik des Alters."

Thank you for presenting this complex wine region! And for featuring quality wines that are actually affordable.

Great video. My wife and I really enjoy German wines, but don't see enough from the Pfalz here in the Midwest, US. I find it interesting that while several of the winemakers mentioned terroir as important to Pfalz winemaking, depth and variety was how you decided to characterize the region. I wonder if, at some levels, understanding the Pfalz necessitates focusing on villages. Forst, for instance, is known for its salty dry Rieslings that show terroir beautifully, at least in the few bottles I've been privileged to try recently.

Pfalz is special for quality to price. I've rarely been disappointed from a grauburgerder from the area

was für ein wundervolles video.

I've had the spätburgunder/pinot noir from Koehler Ruprecht and Becker, and they are both great! The Koehler Ruprecht spätburgunder has a high acidity for a spätburgunder, and the Becker is more mellow and balanced.

You should create sitcom that takes place in the Pfalz about a cranky, ill tempered wine maker. Called : “Pfalzy Towers”

Ohh I absolutely love this. I myself live in the region and explore new wineries. Wolf, the first winery in the video I discovered during COVID where not Dennis but his Dad greeted us telling us he had "Feierabend" german for his shift ended. He then said he had "Feierabend" or "his shift ended" for the rest of his life - joking about being retired. Real nice guy that gave his traditional business to his son who is now doing a more modern taste on wine which he learned in wineries all over Europe. This reflects most of the region where the last generation who studied their skill in and around the region such as Dennis's dad in Baden are letting the new generation take over who instead study wine all over the world being taught by the best wineries. In this video, you can really see the young generation taking over making some of the best wines. It is a great region where you can explore new wines endlessly and pretty much can reach every winery using public transport or bike.

And I just took a deep breath! Wonderful to get out and about Mr B xxx

Excellent video. So much love and attention to detail 🙌
