About Weingut Pfeffingen

The winery is located in the municipality of Bad Dürkheim-Pfeffingen between Bad Dürkheim and Ungstein in the German wine-growing region of Pfalz. The Schnell family has been growing wine in the Palatinate since the mid-17th century. In 1931, the Pfeffingen estate was acquired by Valentin Schnell. His son-in-law Karl Fuhrmann took over the business in 1952 and subsequently converted the previously mixed agricultural business completely to viticulture.

Pfeffingen - Weingutsgebäude

After training as a winemaker, studying viticulture in Geisenheim and gaining practical experience abroad (California, Bordeaux and Australia), Jan Eymael took over the management of the business in 2002. There are three generations of the family working in the business. According to the company motto "Top quality with sustainability", there is a balanced interplay between economy, ecology and social responsibility.

Vineyards & grape varieties

The vineyards cover 17 hectares of vines in the Ungstein vineyards Herrenberg, Nussriegel and Weilberg. They are planted with the white wine varieties Riesling (50%), Scheurebe, Gewürztraminer, Weißburgunder (Pinot Blanc), Silvaner, Roter Riesling and Chardonnay, as well as the red wine varieties Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir), St. Laurent and Merlot.

Cultivation

The environmentally friendly and sustainable cultivation is carried out according to certified Fair'n Green rules. This includes measures to reduce the consumption of resources through sophisticated recycling and the use of rainwater instead of drinking water in outdoor operations, the promotion of biodiversity through the use of compost and cover crop, the avoidance of herbicides and insecticides and instead pest control by means of a confusion method using pheromones. Most of the grapes are harvested selectively by hand.

Product range

The cellar management is carried out according to non-invasive rules (as much as necessary, as little as possible). The range is categorised according to the VDP classification model into estate wines, local wines, single vineyards and bottle-fermented sparkling wines. Around a quarter of the production is exported. The winery is a member of the VDP and the "Wine in Moderation" initiative (moderate and responsible wine consumption).
