What a weekend!

What a weekend! "Liquid HISTORY" – rare & legendary! Our "BÜRGERGARTEN" RARE WINES TASTING (Friday, 28 & Saturday, 29 March 2025) was a true experience! From young, distinctive wines to aged treasures – each flight a journey through time for the palate. Particularly unforgettable: the 1999 Bürgergarten Riesling Beerenauslese – pure elegance! Plus, culinary "perfect matches" from Meinolf Sachse (Restaurant Mandelhof) – because great wines deserve great food! Thanks to everyone who joined us and celebrated these liquid treasures with us!

SPRING vibes in the VDP.GROSSEN LAGE Neustadter VOGELSANG

The vineyards are awakening! Mild light, clear air, and the first warm days herald the arrival of spring. Exceptional GRAND CRUS ripen here year after year on shell limestone soils – characterized by finesse, depth, and terroir.

 

The path leads along the historic dry-stone walls to the Deidesheim Temple. This iconic building towers above the vines and offers spectacular views of Neustadt, the Rhine plain, and the Palatinate Forest. A place of tranquility – and the perfect inspiration for great wines.

 

Those who continue their hike delve deeper into history: The path leads through the protected natural area up to Wolfsburg Castle, once the seat of the Vice-Dominus and later the scene of revolutionary events. Today, the castle ruins offer impressive panoramic views of the town and countryside – a place steeped in history and vision.

Pinot Noir sets new standards!

Good news from Terry Theise | The World of Fine Wine:

"Just a quick note that your 2022 Spätburgunders establish you as an elite producer of this grape variety. More to come - but I had to tell you that immediately! One more thing - great improvement in the quality of the Sekts. :-)"

VDP.KELLERNACHT 2025: A festival for wine lovers

On Saturday, February 15, 2025, the VDP.Wineries in the northern Palatinate were transformed into a true paradise for wine lovers. The VDP.KELLERNACHT offered guests the opportunity to immerse themselves in the fascinating world of top wines and experience the diversity of Palatinate wine culture up close.

 

The renowned companies Philipp Kuhn, Knipser and Rings opened their doors at 5 p.m. and invited guests to an unforgettable evening full of enjoyment and conviviality. In atmospheric cellar light, visitors were not only able to explore the impressive wine press houses and barrel cellars, but also taste an exquisite selection of wines from all 27 VDP.Wineries in the region.

 

We are particularly proud that we were able to be present as guest winemakers at the VDP.Weingut Philipp Kuhn that evening. Our wines were very well received and the response from guests was consistently positive.

The event was quickly sold out and the enthusiasm of the participants was clearly noticeable. The VDP.KELLERNACHT was celebrated on Instagram with numerous pictures and impressions that captured the special atmosphere and the variety of wines.

 

We would like to thank the VDP, all guests, winemakers and partners who made this evening a special experience. A big thank you also goes to everyone who tried and appreciated our wines - we look forward to seeing you again at the next VDP.KELLERNACHT!

Vernissage with Fiete Stolte at the Estate on Mandelring

On Saturday, February 8, 2025, an inspiring vernissage featuring conceptual sculptor Fiete Stolte from Berlin took place at Gutshaus am Mandelring.

Rarities Tasting

On Saturday, February 1st, our winery hosted an exclusive rarity tasting. Our guests had the opportunity to taste exceptional wines from past decades in five carefully selected flights.

Mature wines offer a fascinating interplay of aromas that tell stories of sunny days and the dedication of the winemakers. The terroir of the Haardt vineyards in particular, with its weathered sandstone and mineral-rich soils, gives the wines a unique identity.

Accompanied by culinary delights, we experienced an impressive journey through the variety of wines, which ranged from dry to residually sweet. Each wine was a masterpiece that reflected the passion and craftsmanship. The evening became a feast for the palate and a tribute to the beauty of Haardt wines.
