Hammel & Cie Heart of Gold Pinot Blanc

Pinot Blanc from the Palatinate – and one that shows why this grape variety is currently receiving so much attention again: substantial, yet light-footed, with a fine fruitiness that is not intrusive.

Hammel & Cie is one of the oldest wineries in the Palatinate, rooted in Kirchheim an der Weinstraße for over 200 years. Their "Herz aus Gold" (Heart of Gold) line represents approachable, well-made everyday wines from Palatinate vineyards – easy to drink without being shallow.

In the glass, the Pinot Blanc displays a bright golden yellow. The nose offers aromas of fresh mirabelle plum, ripe apricot, and a hint of almond – soft yet clearly defined. On the palate, it presents a mild, juicy acidity, medium body, and a creamy texture. The finish is short to medium-long, with nutty and fruity notes.

Serving temperature: 10–12 °C. Goes well with

• Pasta with cream sauce or fried mushrooms
• light-colored poultry, e.g. chicken with herbs
• mild goat cheese or young Gouda
