Pfaffenheim
Pfaffenheim produces wines from Alsace, the northeastern French region celebrated for its aromatic whites and distinctive terroir. The winery's portfolio centers on the classic Alsatian varieties: Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, and Riesling. The Tête à Tête Pinot Blanc–Pinot Gris blend represents the winery's top-rated expression, a wine that marries the crisp minerality of Pinot Blanc with the textural richness Pinot Gris brings to the glass. The straight Pinot Blanc offers a leaner, more direct interpretation of the variety's citrus and stone-fruit character. The Black Tie Pinot Gris–Riesling combines two of Alsace's most versatile grapes, layering the weight and spice of Pinot Gris against Riesling's floral and aromatic backbone. Decanter and Wine Spectator have rated these wines, reflecting their standing within the region's white-wine tradition.
