The wine region of Baden
German capital of Pinot Noir (Spätburgunder): silky, fine reds with notes of red fruits, cherry, undergrowth and sweet spices, melted tannins. Round Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris), lively Weissburgunder, supple Müller-Thurgau, mineral Riesling. Germany's 3rd region (15,000 ha) in Baden-Württemberg facing Alsace, one of the country's warmest climates, volcanic soils at the Kaiserstuhl. Cradle of modern great German reds, elegant and fine.
The word of the wine: Sulphur
An antiseptic and antioxidant substance known since antiquity, probably already used by the Romans. But it was only in modern times that its use was rediscovered. It will allow a better conservation of the wine and thus favour its export. Sulphur also gave the 18th century winegrower the possibility of extending the maceration period without fearing that the wine would turn sour and thus go from dark rosé wines to the red wines of today. Excessive sulphur, on the other hand, kills happiness, paralysing the aromas and causing headaches.
