Heppenheimer Centgericht Weißburgunder Crescentia VDP Erste Lage

A Pinot Blanc from one of the most historic sites on the Bergstraße — the name Centgericht dates back to a medieval court site where justice was administered for over a thousand years.

The Domäne Bergstraße dates back to a foundation by the Grand Ducal Administration of Hesse-Darmstadt in 1904 and has been part of the Hessian State Wineries Kloster Eberbach since 1946 — one of the oldest wineries in Germany. The classification as VDP. Erste Lage marks the plots on the Heppenheimer Landberg as a first-class single vineyard, selectively cultivated for over a century.

The Pinot Blanc shows a creamy texture on the palate with a fresh acid structure: aromas of yellow apple, white peach, and a hint of hazelnut; the finish remains dry and mineral. Typical for Bergstraße Pinot Blanc at this quality level — substantial, yet never heavy.

Serving temperature: 10–12 °C. Pairs with veal medallions with creamed mushrooms, pan-fried monkfish, or a ripe Brie de Meaux.
