Hannes und Claudiu | Pfalz, Germany

Hannes und Claudiu

In South Pfalz, nestled within the dense Palatinate Forest, Hannes Bergdoll and Claudiu Dumea work together to create exceptional wines that are both easy to drink and full of charm.

The two first crossed paths in Frankfurt, where Claudiu still manages his own wine bar, Espresso Espresso while Hannes Bergdoll takes a pragmatic, agricultural approach, stemming from a family of German vintners. The project started when Hannes' family generously offered a portion of their vines located in the Landau municipality where they cultivate both local and international grape varieties

A perfect marriage of skills, resources but more importantly vision of the duo results in the mastery of their Solera wines which we find irresistibly complex yet ready to drink.
