Meinklang is one of my favorite producers anywhere and we finally scored most of their lineup for the first time I can remember in Austin. Like Foradori, Meinklang is a picturesque self-sustaining Demeter certified biodynamic and organic farm which happens to make insanely good wines.
This is just about the prettiest shade of Pinot Grigio (aka Grauburgunder) I’ve ever seen.
It’s expertly assembled - sour honeyed tangerine and apricot.
Graupert is slang for a scruffy or wild soul - the Pinot gris is grown untrimmed, left to spread its vines wild.

Auf unserer Tour im Saarland sind wir in Losheim am See angelangt. Im Hubertushof neben unserer Ferienwohnung haben wir diesen leckeren Wein genossen. — 8 years ago
Kein grösstes Kino, aber vernünftiger Freitagsabends bis Samstagsabends Wein, schöne Frucht, wenig und gut eingebundene Säure. Hexamer hatte ich bisher als Rieslingweingut auf dem Schirm, mittlerweile sind die weissen Burgundersorten qualitätsmässig deutlich angezogen. — 4 years ago
Pasler, Satzer Graben, Pinot Gris, 2018. A dream of an orange wine. This is how this wine should taste. This wine is fun for more. The 13.5 % alcohol drinks easily. This wine is a success for the winemaker. — 5 years ago

Not your uncle’s Pinot Grigio. Full bodied and luscious with ripe orchard fruit, minerals, and enough structure to keep evolving in the cellar. This was a fun left field bottle to share with wine geeks at thanksgiving. $40
More info: 25 year old vines in heavy clay soil. Pluris vineyard is steep with only one row of vines per terrace for maximum exposure. — 5 years ago

Oranger Wein ohne ein Orangewein zu sein. Fein und pointiert, gutes PLV mit 8,30 — 4 years ago
