Von Oetinger

Achim von Oetinger delivers beautifully succinct, taut, structured Rieslings that live off texture and purity. He showed his 2022 collection, which is stunning and unusual. The estate has existed since 1828 but was split in 1966. This was one of the first properties to open to the public with a small restaurant; thus, it sold its wines directly. Since Achim von Oetinger took over in the early 2000s, he re-united the split estate and forged a new, bone-dry style for the wines. This meant starting from scratch with sales as he disappointed the old clientele. Von Oetinger farms 12 hectares of vines in Erbach, split into 85% Riesling and 10% Pinot Noir. The remaining 10% are Pinot Gris, Müller-Thurgau and Chenin Blanc. All wines are hand-harvested with “extreme selection,” have skin contact, are fermented fully dry and stay on gross lees for at least 11 months.
