Location: Germany, Pfalz
Winemaker: Daniel & Jonas Brand
Grapes: Weißburgunder, Sylvaner
Fresh liter of minerality with pleasant waxiness, white flowers, flutters of butterscotch and thyme
From the Importer Vom Boden: “The brothers Brand, Daniel and Jonas, have quickly brought attention to the far northern Pfalz, this cool-climate, limestone-rich, yet otherwise overlooked region. I would say the brothers have redefined this place, but that presupposes the place has actually been defined, which is a stretch.
The Brand brothers are, however, electrifying their little town and this forgotten region. And they are doing so with huge smiles, a raucous joy – even downright excitement – in their role as stewards for the land.
It’s a rather curious blend of youthful exuberance, a surplus of energy and an unflappable belief in the future of viticulture in their vineyards, tempered by a maturity that is surprising given their ages (Daniel was born in 1990; Jonas in 1994).”
