Thanks, Richard. The demand is worldwide, but North America is an important market. (We also have four different importers in Canada.)
In NYC, Chambers Street Wines and Leon & Son offered 2021 Palm.

My guess is that the '21s are, for the most part, sold out in the States.
The '22s should be shipped by June.

Great news: AHD Vintners/i-lixir Beverage will directly import Hofgut Falkenstein to Metro Detroit and other parts of Michigan starting this year.

I don’t know if they do private offers, but Red&White in Chicago carries Falkenstein when they get it in and will carry a good amount of the range.

We also plan to allocate a few cases to the Twin Cities via New France Wine Co.
There would then be a dozen distributors directly importing to the States.
Long shot, but any idea of specific stores that may carry Falkenstein in Missouri or Kansas (ideally Kansas City)? I’m assuming I need to find it online, but worth a query!

Unfortunately, we don’t have a distributor in Missouri or Kansas. You might want to ask @Brian_S_t_o_t_t_e_r, who lives in Kansas City and buys Falkenstein, for tips on where to find the wines online.

Oh, sorry, I forgot that you were in St. Louis. It was a long day. We picked Pinot Blanc.

All good! Same state.
Earlier this month, a purveyor in Connecticut approached me about a direct import. We will offer him the 2023s.
