A cooperative farming effort, otherwise known as, Vier Jahreszeiten (four seasons) was created in 1898 by Duerkheim (Pfalz) growers in an effort to help curb the financial difficulties farmers were dealing with at the time. Needless to say, the stress of growth for farmers has not eased over time and the cooperative is alive and kicking today.
With the change in weather, we thought it was appropriate to offer a wine that tastes as good as you feel basking in the sun. While tricky to say and almost laughable, the 2007 Vier Jahreszeiten Gewurztraminer Durkheimer Feuerberg Kabinett Trocken, is well worth the attempt. The reason we insist on all of these words (at least twice) is because Durkheimer tells you from which town your wine is from, and Feuerberg is the vineyard and the wine is at a kabinett level for ripeness and then fermented trocken, or dry. So while complicated, it's easy drinking and beautiful.
The Durk (that's what we call it) $15 a bottle
