Weingut Jülg, Weissburgunder, Pfalz, Germany, 2019

The Pfalz is the one region in the country outperforming the rest, according to the Wine Society's buyer for Germany, Marcel Orford Williams. This wine is a slight oddity in that the grapes used to make it are all grown across the border in France's Alsace region – the border as it was drawn in 1945 cuts through the middle of the vineyards belonging to this small family estate. Dry, lively and uncomplicated, this Pinot Blanc is light to medium bodied, refreshing, with firm peach fruit flavours and good acidity. A good everyday food wine.
