Vintage Report

2022 was een goed jaar voor de Pfalz, gekenmerkt door een warme en zonnige zomer die leidde tot optimale rijpheid van de druiven. Dit resulteerde in wijnen met een uitstekende fruitconcentratie en een evenwichtige structuur.

This dry Dornfelder is a robust estate wine from the Ellermann-Spiegel winery. It has absorbed the full power of the fertile loam-clay soils and now presents it in the glass. All in all, a delicious wine from the Ellermann Spiegel winery.

A unique microclimate for Dornfelder

The company is located in the southernmost tip of the Palatinate, where the area benefits from a unique microclimate, allowing the grapes to ripen optimally. In 2007, Frank Spiegel took over the approximately 48 hectares of vineyard from his stepfather, Harald Ellermann. Until then, he had been selling the wine in barrels to cooperatives. In a short time, Frank transformed the company from a bulk supplier to a quality house with its own bottlings. They have been successfully marketing Ellermann-Spiegel wines on the Dutch market for three years. Palatinate is Germany's second-largest agricultural area, bordering Rheinhessen to the north and Alsace to the south. Thanks to the Atlantic Ocean, the climate is mild with relatively little rain. The wind blows from the west. Summers are usually warm and sunny. In winter, the Haardt Mountains protect the grapes from cold easterly winds, while in summer, these mountains retain the heat. These are ideal conditions for grapes. And we see this reflected in the wines of Ellermann Spiegel.

Manual harvest for Ellermann Spiegel wines

The grapes for this Dronfelder are hand-harvested and matured for twelve months in wooden barrels and stainless steel tanks. With its intense aroma of ripe sweet cherries, plums, and raspberry jam, it captivates the senses from the outset. On the palate, it impresses with its down-to-earth character, being unpretentious and unassuming, it flows very softly and caresses the tongue, without being too thick or astringent. A Palatinate classic. This red wine from Ellermann Spiegel pairs well with hearty dishes and braised and roasted meats.
