This is the top of Peter Leipold's Pinot Noir pyramid, and it wears its Burgundy training openly. Fruit comes from a single southwest-facing plot of Muschelkalk limestone in Franken, fermented with wild yeast, partly whole-cluster, then aged in French oak that includes old barrels sourced from Domaine de la Romanee-Conti. Gravity-fed, unfined, unfiltered, with barely any sulfur added. 'Grand Cru' isn't an official title here, it's Leipold's own shorthand for his best bottling, and the wine backs it up with real depth and finesse. Serious German Pinot from a producer worth following closely.

WINE GUIDES

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
