Reichsrat von Buhl Armand Riesling Kabinett from Pfalz is a vibrant, light-bodied white offering aromas of ripe white peach, tangy lime, and hints of wet slate. It's off-dry with energetic acidity and delicate sweetness. Serve it well chilled with pan-seared scallops as the wine's crisp brightness and mineral character will enhance the sweet, tender seafood beautifully, or pair it with Thai green curry where the wine's gentle sweetness and lively acidity will balance the aromatic spices perfectly. Chief winemaker Simone Frigerio, who joined as Technical Director in March 2023 alongside Managing Director Monika Schmid, oversees production at this historic estate founded in 1849 by Franz Peter Buhl. Named after Armand von Buhl, the dazzling personality who earned the title "Reichsrat" (Imperial Councilor of the Bavarian Crown) for his achievements in German social legislation and whose wine was famously served at the 1869 Suez Canal opening ceremony, this wine is crafted from hand-harvested grapes grown on white and yellow sandstone soils in organically farmed VDP Grand Cru vineyards. Enjoy now or cellar for 5-10 years.

Riesling food pairings: pan-seared scallops, Thai green curry, steamed mussels.
