Battenfeld Spanier Zeller Kreuzberg Riesling Pfalz, 750ml
| Description: | The Zellertal has seen winegrowing since the 8th century, placing it squarely among the oldest winegrowing regions anywhere in Germany. Nevertheless, it was all but forgotten in the 20th century until H.o. Spanier chose it, after the Frauenberg and Schwarzer Herrgott, as his next project to restore to the consciousness of wine lovers. The Kreuzberg lies just below the Schwarzer Herrgott and in fact looks up to the Herrgott's black Kreuz (‘cross'), earning it the name "Zellertal Kreuzberg." Geologically, the Zellertal Kreuzberg is just as unique as the Schwarzer Herrgott, standing on a massive bank of limestone running from Rheinhessen's Frauenberg into the Pfalz portion of the Zellertal and known for producing wines of an incredibly mineral character. The Kreuzberg Riesling has been classified as a Gg since the 2020 vintage, thus making it the first Großes Gewächs from the Pfalz |
