Product Description:

With a history in their village going back to the 1700s, Stefan Meyer’s family is as much a part of the terroir of Rhodt unter Reitburg as the clay and loam soils their vines are planted to. These vines, which lie along the border of the Palatinate forest, cover 16 ha distributed among 70 different small plots. Considering that Stefan’s grandfather Karl Hermann Meyer started the estate with 4 ha in 1954, it’s clear that growth here is done in a measured and thoughtful way, only adding the best plots available and never choosing quantity over quality.

Along with the traditional Riesling, Stefan is farming the local red varieties Portugieser, Sankt Laurent, and Dornfelder for his cuvée Ein Liter Rhodt, a pun on the grape color and the village name. He also has some Kerner and Chardonnay. But perhaps Stefan’s most delicious killer value comes from his old vines Silvaner, some of which are over 40 years old. Fermented spontaneously in stainless steel and bottled in liters, this is a vibrant, fresh wine that tastes of its loam soils and projects Stefan’s youthful energy.
