Maikammerer Mandelhöhe

2005 Pfalz Gewürztraminer

The Ludwig Wagner & Sohn Maikammerer Mandelhöhe is a stunning example of Gewürztraminer from the renowned Pfalz region, showcasing the exquisite character of this aromatic varietal. With its radiant, golden-yellow hue, this vintage from 2005 offers an enticing bouquet filled with alluring notes of lychee, rose petal, and spiced citrus. On the palate, it unfolds with a medium-bodied richness that is both captivating and generous, while the bright acidity adds a delightful liveliness, balancing the wine beautifully. The fruit intensity is prominent, allowing flavors of ripe stone fruit and floral undertones to shine through, complemented by a subtle sweetness that underscores its off-dry nature. This Gewürztraminer also features soft tannins that round out the experience, making it a wonderful choice for pairing with spicy dishes or enjoying on its own as a delightful aperitif.

Riesling is the most famous varietal in Germany, and is made in a range of styles, from dry and steely to sweet and peachy. The wines are classified according to the region as well as how much sugar is in each wine. Aside from the aromatic Riesling, you will also find subtle, refreshing whites made from local grapes like the floral Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner. Germany also produces some increasingly excellent red wine, mostly crisp and brightly fruity Pinot Noir (locally known as Spätburgunder).
