Worth the Effort: The 2020 Harvest at Villa Wolf in Germany’s Pfalz Region

Foresight and a Lot of Extra Vineyard Work Lead to an Exceptional Vintage – Because of its very early start, the 2020 growing season caused some viticultural concerns from the very beginning. But thanks to the intuition and exertions of our very dedicated vineyard team, this year has turned out to be extraordinary. To put this vintage in perspective, Patrick Möllendorf, head winemaker at Villa Wolf, commented that 2020 "reminds him a lot of that harmonious 2012 vintage, which had conditions that were almost as ideal as this year and produced wines that now show enormous aging potential."
