Typical Ungeheuer nose with ripe stone fruit and delicate spice, lots of creaminess and well-integrated acidity.
The site Forster Ungeheuer is one of the most distinctive and well-known vineyards of the palatinate. There powerful and long-lasting wines with a spicy minerality are produced. When Reich Chancellor Prince Otto von Bismarck visited Deidesheim at the end of the 1880s as a guest of the Vice President of the Reichstag, the owner of the winery Franz Armand Buhl, he said: "This Ungeheuer tastes monstrous to me." Von Buhl is the sole owner of the original plot Ungeheuer, which served as eponyms for the VDP.Große Lage.
Soil:
Complex, this is the best description of the soil structure in the much vaunted site in the Mittelhaardt: typical sandstone weathering soils with more dense clay and sand layers, partially offset with amounts of limestone. Basalt rock provides the vines with the necessary heat and mineral character. A massive limestone plate at a depth of approx. 2 m provides a very efficient water supply. The sum of all factors is the reason for the power and length of the wines from the Ungeheuer.
