Variety: Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc)

The brothers Brand, Daniel and Jonas, are defining growth of organic and little to no-intervention range of whites and reds. Hailing in the Pfalz region of Germany is a lesser known village, Bockenheim, known for its quiet, rugged and gritty agriculture. The Brand brothers are fifth generation winemakers and took over production from their father. The hand logo on many of their labels may look like the peace sign at first glance; however, it is an oath taken by the brothers representing their emotional relationship to their region and furthermore, a symbol for quality in the bottle and close connection with nature. The wines are all organic and have little to no sulphites added.

This Pinot Blanc comes from the valley vineyards around Bockenheimer hill. Pinot Blanc is often a little misunderstood. Its name German name, “WeissBurgunder,” means white Burgundy, referring to its similarity in the way it drinks. It is often full bodied and dry with a richer mouthfeel. This does have more of a zippy and fruity character that makes the wine its own, completely separate from white Burgundy wine.
