The premier cru is from a single-hectare plot, uniquely positioned above the left bank of the Serein River. Its steep, well-drained Kimmeridgian slopes and dry winds force the vines to struggle, producing wines of great concentration. The vines average 55-years old.  After very strict selection at...

"This is an amazing dry Mosel with breathtakingly intense minerality and herbal freshness that makes the flavors so vibrant and finely etched. That it’s only medium-bodied makes it even more delightful.

[VdT = "Von der Terrassen" or terraced vineyards]  "Round and elegant on the palate, this is a rich but refined and well-balanced Riesling from 50- to 55-year-old, low-yielding vines. -Stefan Reinhardt "...staggering concentration... exceptional finesse... breathtakingly long finish..." -Stuart...

"The greatest wines in the world are sometimes imposing and dramatic, but sometimes they are like this filigree beauty that has staggering concentration, but no less amazing refinement. What a breathtakingly perfect balance right through the titanically slatey finish, extending out to infinity." -...

100% Pinot Noir from a mix of vineyards on slate. 50% stem inclusion. Vinified 3 weeks in open fermenters then matured briefly in used Burgundy barrels. Bottled unfiltered. Bright magenta in color, fruit-driven, juicy, buoyant, and addictively drinkable. The price is just silly.

Easily the most showstopping Pinot we tasted with Stefan in April 2024. WOW! A luscious red teeming with sweet cherry fruit, exemplary of the warm year; but slate soils, steep slopes (70% in some parcels!) and 50% stem inclusion keep this wine focused, fresh, and riveting. From French clones, 30+...

Stefan calls 2019 his "breakthrough vintage" for Pinot Noir. At five years old, this wine is proving him right. The Hofberg is an historic grand cru for both Pinot and Riesling, founded on grey/blue slate but with a lattice of red iron-oxide streaks lending the wines exotic floral and spice notes...

The "vulture slate" vineyard, planted to 65-year-old vines in a gorgeously situated cool side valley of the Mosel. Stefan's signature vineyard, as far as we're concerned. Exotically ripe, floral, and lip-smacking, but locked in place by Saar-like tension and minerality.

100% Pinot Noir, from 30 year old vines. The soil is composed of layers of clay and small fossilized oyster shells with limestone sediment. Grapes are sorted in the cellar then placed in stainless steel tanks where the alcoholic fermentation and maceration takes place for three weeks. Malolactic...

35 year old vines, from a vineyard called “Le Désert du Petit Bannon” located in the commune of Vinon. The terroir is composed of clay-siliceous soil with lots of flint pebbles. Direct pressing with cold static settling for four days. The must is then moved into 400L barrels where it undergos...

This cuvée comes from 50 year-old Chardonnay vines from a single hectare plot called ‘Les Effarets.’ The name of the wine, Les Gryphées, comes from an ancient extinct oyster, whose fossils’ are found in the soil. The wine is aged on the lees for 12 months and the barrels are topped off to protect...

From three Grand Cru villages: Cramant, Chouilly, and Oiry. Vinified in stainless steel where it goes through malolactic fermentation. Aged on lees for 36 months. 4g/L dosage.
