Buy Wine from Von Winning
In the Pfalz, there are names spoken with respect because they have managed to do two things at once: preserve history and drive the future forward. Von Winning is exactly that. With roots dating back to the 19th century in Deidesheim, this estate has undergone a decisive renaissance in the 21st century, refining its identity to become a clear benchmark for modern German dry wine. Today, Von Winning does not simply seek to ‘make great Rieslings’: it pursues a more ambitious vision, that of translating each vineyard plot into a precise emotion.
The golden triangle: Deidesheim, Forst and Ruppertsberg
The heart of the winery beats between Deidesheim, Forst and Ruppertsberg, a privileged stretch of the Deutsche Weinstraße where the Pfalz sun ripens the grapes to perfection, but work in the vineyard and an understanding of the soil transform that generosity into tension and detail. Here, Riesling is the backbone, accompanied by varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, which, in the winery’s hands, gain edge, texture and an unmistakable gastronomic flair.
Soils that define character: limestone, sandstone and basalt
The true language of Von Winning is found beneath your feet. The diversity of soils—loess, marl, clay and sand, as well as patches of limestone and red sandstone—imprints distinct profiles depending on the origin. And in Forst, the volcanic touch of basalt adds a smoky, mineral nuance that is instantly recognisable: a sensation of hot stone, a very fine smoke, a subtle electricity that stretches the wine and makes it vibrate. That is why names such as Kirchenstück, Ungeheuer, Jesuitengarten or Pechstein are not just labels: they are sensory coordinates.
Precision viticulture: deep roots, low yields
The philosophy in the vineyard is clear: less artifice, more plant. With no herbicides or chemical fertilisers, and high planting densities that encourage competition between vines, the winery seeks deep roots and concentrated grapes without losing freshness. The result is wines with natural structure, energy and a minerality that is not ‘added’: it reveals itself.
The winery as an echo of the vineyard: lees, wood and silence
In the winery, Von Winning works with intelligent, minimal intervention: spontaneous fermentation, ageing in barrels of different sizes, prolonged contact with lees and a technical approach that avoids artificial enhancements. The wood does not impose aromas, but rather contributes texture, breadth and a slow evolution. Here, precision reigns: restrained fruit, salinity, tension and a length that lingers in the memory.
A style that defines the present of dry Riesling
. To drink Von Winning is to discover just how far dry Riesling can go when the terroir is interpreted with rigour and sensitivity. These are wines that demand a table, time and, in their finest vintages, even air. The Pfalz in high definition: light, rock and a firm elegance that seeks not immediate applause, but a lasting place in the memory.--
