Seckinger has Germany’s new generation of sommeliers are sipping gleefully. Three brothers (Lukas, Phillip, and Jonas) making biodynamic Pfalz wines taking cues from the natural Chablis and Jura as they dig into the terroir of their historic vineyards of mostly red sandstone. The wines are bone dry, hazy, and savoury. Seckinger may have produced his first wine at the age of 17, initially experimenting with an old wooden press in his parents’ garage. Ok, we get it..
Petershöhle, literally Peter’s Cave, is the pride of the Seckinger family. Over 30 years ago, Papa Seckinger began restoring the ancient terraces that lie in the upper most part of the larger Herrgottsacker premier cru. His task was huge, but the results are impressive.
Botanical, sage and thyme; kaffir lime, verbena; a finish that is sharp and spicy. Firm and wild.
