Weingut Odinstal ★ 4.5
Thomas Hensel's Odinstal above Wachenheim, at around 350 metres elevation, is Demeter-certified biodynamic and works dry Riesling, Silvaner and Weissburgunder from the steep basalt and limestone hill behind the Wachtenburg ruin.
Tip: The drive up to Odinstal earns the visit on its own; the basalt-and-limestone hilltop above Wachenheim is the coolest single-site Riesling terroir in the Pfalz.
