Description

The Riedlin family vineyards are located in the town of Laufen on the foothills of the Black Forest in the Markgräflerland/Baden. The vines of the RIEDLIN ROSÉ are up to 50 years old and managed according to organic farming methods certified by Demeter.

After crushing the grapes into open vats we bleed off the juice (like Saignée) just about 15 % off the RIEDLIN ROT vats. It is 100 % Spätburgunder juice and the quality level is equal to the juice for the RIEDLIN ROT.

The wine is kept on its fine lees until bottling is done in late spring of the year following harvest.

The wonderful label is from the artwork of Adolf Riedlin (1892-1969), a family member and a grand uncle from Markus. It is from a painting created in 1950. It shows a resting vintner with a bottle of wine in his hand. In the case of the RIEDLIN ROSÉ he holds a Rosé bottle and in the case of the RIEDLIN ROT a red bottle in his hand. Adolf Riedlin is regarded today as a pioneer of the „Modern Art“ in the region Baden.

Riedlin

The Riedlin family has tended their vineyards on the foothills of the Black Forest in the town of Laufen in the southern part of Baden, Germany, since 1656. In 2009 Markus Kuntz-Riedlin had the opportunity to take over the vineyards of his parents and thus, to continue the centuries-old family tradition, bringing in, as matter of course, his own ambition and expertise of wine making. The Spätburgunder Estate is certified biodynamic by Demeter since 2018.

The 2010 vintage saw a RIEDLIN wine put into bottles for the first time in generations — a Spätburgunder (Pinot noir) matured in French barrique barrels for 15 months.

Also, since the 2011 vintage a RIEDLIN ROT and RIEDLIN ROSÉ is available. In addition, the inherited distillery right bound to the Riedlin Estate in Laufen was used to make a premier spirit labelled RIEDLIN BRILLANT from the wine yeast.

Baden

Baden, the southernmost wine region in Germany, is renowned for its diverse and high-quality wines. Benefiting from a warm climate, similar to that of Alsace just across the border, Baden is ideal for viticulture. It is particularly celebrated for its Pinot varieties, including Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir), which is known for its rich, full-bodied flavours and elegance. Baden also excels in producing Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc) and Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris), which are appreciated for their aromatic profiles and balance. Additionally, the area produces excellent Riesling and Müller-Thurgau. The varied soils, from volcanic to loess, contribute to the unique character of Baden wines. With its blend of traditional winemaking and innovation, Baden offers a diverse and delightful wine experience for enthusiasts seeking top-quality German wines.
