🏰 Origin & winery

  • Winery: The Markgraf von Baden winery is one of the most traditional wineries in Germany. The estate has been a member of the Association of German Prädikat Wine Estates (VDP) since 2012 and adheres to the association's exacting standards from the Gutswein level to the Grosse Gewächse.

  • Grape variety: Pinot Blancis a noble white grape variety characterised by its elegant versatility and fine structure. Originally from Burgundy, it now thrives in many growing regions around the world and is characterised by aromas of delicate citrus fruits, green apples and a hint of almond.

  • Wine-growing region: The wine comes from the large VDP vineyard of Lake Constance, whose mild maritime climate and proximity to the Alps offer unique geological and climatic conditions that produce fresh, fruity wines with a fine minerality. The winery cultivates some of the best vineyards in this region and favours gentle processing.

  • VDP classification: As a VDP.GUTSWEIN, this is the basic quality of the association, but it already fulfils the highest standards. Estate wines come exclusively from the winery's own vineyards and reflect the terroir of the respective region of origin.


🍷 The wine in detail (2023 vintage)

🔍 Appearance

The Pinot Blanc presents itself in the glass in a strong yellow colour with an inviting golden shimmer, which already visually hints at its maturity and fullness.

  • Fruity nuances: a clear aroma of ripe apples and pears characterises the bouquet, accompanied by apricot and yellow plum.

  • Floral & nutty notes: The fruity flavours are accompanied bywhite flowers,orange blossom and a hint of almond and hazelnut, which gives the wine additional complexity.

👅 Palate (flavour)

The 2023 Pinot Blanc impresses with its harmonious interplay of all elements:

  • Texture & acidity: On the palate , it is juicy, supple and yet with a noticeable pressure and a lean but carrying acidity that gives it freshness and vibrancy.

  • Perfectly integrated residual sugar: With a residual sugar content of only around 2 g/l and a dry flavour, it is clear, precise and by no means sweet.

  • Minerality: The light minerality typical of the Lake Constance region rounds off the flavour and provides a lovely depth.

  • Finish: The finish is fresh, harmonious and of good length.
