Bad Dürkheim is an important German wine town in the North of the Pfalz wine region. The spa town was granted its Bad- affix in 1904, in recognition of its Mineral springs (bad means 'bath'). The Vineyards here are best known for their ripe, ComplexRiesling wines. These are among the most flavorful of all German Rieslings, thanks to the Warm, DryClimate.
