After the devastating 2021 floods destroyed vineyards and barrels, the resilient Stodden family created this exceptional collection of premium Spätburgunders, showcasing their commitment to restoring their legacy despite tremendous adversity. This wooden case features three outstanding bottles that represent both remarkable quality and an inspiring story of perseverance.
This three-bottle wooden case includes one bottle of the three wines below...
2020 Jean Stodden, Pegel 735, Spätburgunder, Ahr
The Pegel cuvée blends fruit from riverside plots and Rech's lower slopes, delivering vibrant wild berries, cherry notes and subtle spice with perfect balance between juicy concentration and refined tannins. A rare opportunity to taste exceptional Spätburgunders with a poignant story that hopefully will never be replicated.
2020 Jean Stodden, 'Rescued by H.O. Spanier', Spätburgunder, Ahr
This exceptional collection honors Hans Oliver Spanier, the Rheinhessen winemaker who helped salvage and identify premium barrels after the devastating floods. What was intended as a basic cuvée but revealed extraordinary quality—offering smokey bacon notes, spice, dark cherry and ripe berries with remarkable concentration, perfectly balanced by crisp acidity and refined chalky tannins.
2020 Jean Stodden, 'Alexander Die Grossen', Spätburgunder, Ahr
This rivals Stodden's Grosse Gewächs Spätburgunders, combining the best qualities of their prestigious vineyards—Krauterberg's spice, Sonnenberg's creaminess, and the minerality of Herrenberg and Mönchberg. Intensely perfumed with wild strawberries, aromatic tea and delicious spice notes, these wines deliver tight-knit tannins and thrilling tension from crisp acidity across a silky palate.
