A Dry Riesling that Defies Market Forces
Von Winning is one of Europe’s elite producers. Their top bottling will set you back over $200—if you can even find it in the US.
That price is deserved. Von Winning’s wines sell out every year, and top sommeliers fight for allocations of their powerfully dry Rieslings. Yet the most amazing wine they produce might be their entry-level Estate Riesling Trocken (dry) because of how it defies market forces: Unlike their competition at the very top of the heap for great white wine in Europe—think of names like Roulot, Lafon, and Colin-Morey—their least-expensive bottle won’t set you back $50+.
Since arriving at the 160-year-old estate in 2007, general manager Stephan Attmann has turned Von Winning into one of the most impressive wineries in the world. He made it clear that his inspirations are not just great dry Rieslings like Clos Ste. Hune, but the greatest wines of Burgundy as well.
Von Winning draws from some of the best vineyards in the Pfalz, a region that has long been famous for its powerful, dry wines. In 2020, a long, moderate vintage produced wines of outstanding clarity and cut—a dialectic that’s absolutely captivating.
Fermented and aged entirely in stainless steel to preserve the natural vibrancy of the terroir and vintage, Von Winning’s Trocken shows why the wines from 2020 are so exciting—and why the estate is considered a truly elite producer. Stock up while you can: The market has already caught on to the greatness of their top wines, and it’ll come soon for this one too.
