The Meyer family has called Rhodt, a charming village in Germany’s southern Pfalz, home since the 1700s, but it wasn’t until 1950 that Karl Hermann Meyer founded the family winery and began bottling wine under his own name. Today, Stefan Meyer represents the third generation at the helm of this 16-hectare estate, carrying forward what he calls the “powerful tradition” established by his father and grandfather while embracing thoughtful innovation and modern winemaking techniques. The vineyards are situated in Rhodt unter Rietburg at the edge of the Palatinate Forest, where the combination of a warm, sunny climate and diverse sandstone soils provides ideal conditions for producing wines of ripe fruit, freshness and remarkable balance. All vineyard work is conducted organically, with the estate currently working toward Ecovin certification, while in the cellar Stefan allows his wines to ferment spontaneously, relying on native yeasts to preserve their individuality and build greater depth and complexity. The result is a collection of beautifully expressive Pfalz wines that marry the richness of the region with a remarkable sense of purity and finesse.
Stefan Meyer's Weisser Burgunder is incredibly aromatic with a nose of white tree and stone fruits kissed with citrus zest. The light-bodied palate is packed with flavors of pear, apricot and white peach that are supported by a lovely acidity and a touch of minerality. This delicious white finishes dry, crisp and refreshing. Enjoy with all varieties of seafood, hearty salads or grilled pork chops served with apples and onions.
