Since its founding in 1838, the estate has evolved through generations of family leadership, with the Nett family now at the helm, preserving a rich heritage while innovating with modern techniques. Nestled at an altitude of 120-140 meters, the vineyards thrive in a unique microclimate that nurtures not only grapes but also Mediterranean plants like kiwis, figs, almonds, and chestnuts. This distinctive terroir, with soils rich in loess, clay, and underlying limestone veins, imparts a refined mineral quality and depth to the wines.
Guided by a philosophy of minimal intervention, Weingut Bergdolt Reif & Nett allows each vintage to fully express the character of its specific plot. Gentle grape pressing, carefully controlled fermentation, and extended lees aging are essential processes that highlight the natural complexity and balance of each wine. The commitment to sustainability is evident in their use of horse-drawn farming methods in select premier vineyards, a practice that fosters healthier soil and more expressive grapes.
Specializing in Grauburgunder, Spätburgunder, and Weißburgunder from top sites like Mandelberg, the estate also explores varietals like Sauvignon Blanc, Muskateller, and Gewürztraminer, alongside international reds like Merlot and Shiraz. With a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, Weingut Bergdolt Reif & Nett produces wines that embody the essence of Pfalz's terroir, while championing environmental stewardship and exceptional craftsmanship.
