BECKER ESTATE PINOT GRIS 2017

“As was typical of the southern Palatinate region, our family has run a mixed use farm for many generations, with vineyards, some animals, a still and apple, pear, plum, cherry and mirabelle trees. In the middle of the 20th century, it became apparent that our soils and slopes at the edge of the Palatinate Forest offered excellent growing conditions for outstanding wines. Ever since then, wine making has been our profession as well as our passion. In 1973, Friedrich Becker Sr. filled the first bottles with the fox on the label, which became, in a very short time, our trademark. For old friends of our wines, and now for many wine connoisseurs around the world, this label stands for unique wines with uncompromisingly high quality. Over the years, many of our wines, especially our Pinot Noirs, have been consistently recognized as among the best in the Palatinate region and all of Germany. Our company is a member of the VDP and rated one of Germany's top wineries by Gault Millau (four out of five grape bunches).”
