About DR. BÜRKLIN-WOLF

The German wine law of 1971, which is currently in effect, creates the impression that every vineyard site is capable of producing any quality, provided the must weight is high enough.

We have been convinced for a long time that a specific vineyard site is capable of producing a defined maximum quality. This is determined by many factors such as the soil and microclimate as well as the grape variety grown on that site.

As early as 1828, the Kingdom of Bavaria carried out the royal Bavarian vineyard  classification of individual sites, using a similar system. It is not least because of the geographic similarity with the Côte-d’Or in Burgundy that we were inspired by both these systems in applying our own, estate-specific classification. Thus, Dr. Bürklin-Wolf started classifying the vineyards according to a clear structure in 1994. The maxim is that the terroir determines the quality.
