Schwarzer Herrgott is a Zellertal cooler-site Grosse Lage on the Pfalz/Rheinhessen border; Kuhn shares the parcel with Schwedhelm and Battenfeld-Spanier as a high-altitude reference.
Structurally full-bodied, high acidity with a long finish. Dry Grosses Gewachs from the Zellertaler Schwarzer Herrgott: dense salty mineral, herbs, citrus and a long savoury close from calcareous clay on the Pfalz/Rheinhessen border.
Drink 5 to 22 from vintage. Young vintages benefit from 30-90 minutes of decanting; mature bottles should be handled carefully for sediment.
Pike-perch with brown butter is the canonical pairing; Roast pork loin is the other strong match. Salty drive and citrus echo brown butter on river fish.
No: the producer uses traditional animal-derived fining agents (typically egg whites or isinglass) during clarification, so the wine is not vegan.
The blend is Riesling. The wine is classified as VDP.Grosse Lage Pfalz.
