Under the tagline "White Pinot Paradise – Burgunderwunder Deutschland“, wines from the Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay varieties will be available for free tasting at the DWI stand in Hall 1 C110 from 16 to 18 March. The collection comprises 24 dry Pinot wines, which reflect the diverse styles of white Pinots due to their different types of vinification. The DWI will honour the best wines of each of the three varieties on the Sunday of the fair at 11 a.m.

"With this year's ProWein focus, we intend to show the wine world that our white Pinots are also absolutely competitive internationally. In addition, we want to consider the dynamics in the cultivation of these grape varieties, whose vineyards in Germany have tripled from around 6,000 hectares to 18,000 hectares since 2000," explains DWI Managing Director Monika Reule.

In line with with the Pinot focus, the DWI will be offering tastings of selected Pinot sparkling wines and red Pinot wines at its stand.
