In the cellar, Ziereisen follows a low-intervention philosophy: spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, often including a proportion of whole clusters, followed by a long maceration to build structure and extract fine tannins. The wine is then aged in high-quality oak barrels (predominantly used barriques and larger formats) for an extended period on the lees, with minimal racking and gentle handling before bottling, typically unfiltered or only lightly filtered to preserve purity and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Syrah’s combination of freshness, structure, and savoury depth makes it a superb partner for hearty and flavourful dishes.

As it opens, delicate nuances of hazelnut, brioche and a touch of flinty smokiness may emerge, underlining its Burgundian inspiration.\n\nOn the palate, this Chardonnay is precise, taut and finely structured, with a vibrant line of acidity that keeps the wine both serious and highly drinkable. The fruit profile leans toward citrus and orchard fruit, supported by a saline, mineral backbone and a finely woven texture from lees contact and partial barrel aging. Oak influence is integrated rather than dominant, adding gentle creaminess and spice without masking the terroir. The finish is long, clean and focused, suggesting very good aging potential.

Holger Koch is known for careful, hands-on vineyard work, often involving low yields, dense planting and predominantly manual harvesting to ensure only perfectly ripe and healthy fruit makes it to the cellar.\n\nIn the winery, fermentation is typically carried out with indigenous yeasts to reflect the character of the site as transparently as possible. A significant portion of the wine is usually matured in oak barrels—often larger formats or well-chosen barriques—to build texture without heavy oak imprint.

For cheese, opt for semi-hard Alpine styles or a creamy, not overly pungent soft cheese.\n\nServe this Chardonnay at around 10–12°C (50–54°F) to allow both its freshness and complexity to shine.

Ziereisen is known for working as naturally as possible in the vineyard: careful canopy management, hand work throughout the season, and strict hand-harvesting at optimal ripeness ensure that only pristine, concentrated grapes make it into the cellar.\n\nIn the winery, the philosophy is minimal intervention and patience. Grapes are typically destemmed (sometimes with a small portion of whole clusters, depending on the year) and fermented with indigenous yeasts in open vats, allowing for a gentle extraction through pump-overs and punch-downs by hand. After fermentation, the wine is aged for an extended period in mostly used barriques and larger oak barrels, where it slowly clarifies and integrates its tannins without aggressive new wood influence.

This is a wine born from patience and a bit of inspired madness: allowing early-ripening Pinot Meunier to ferment slowly while waiting weeks for the Riesling harvest to join the cuvée. The result is a juicy, vibrant and subtly serious wine that celebrates both varieties in a wonderfully unconventional way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, Schwarz und Weiß 2023 shows a vivid, translucent hue that sits between deep rosé and very light red – think bright pink with a delicately coppery edge. The nose is energetic and expressive, full of primary red and pink fruits: wild strawberries, redcurrants and pomegranate, with hints of blood orange zest and a light floral lift. Underneath, a gentle mineral and saline note adds a sense of tension and intrigue.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is juicy, mouthwatering and refreshingly moreish. Crunchy red berries and sour cherry are wrapped in a fine, tangy acidity from the Riesling, while the Pinot Meunier brings a soft, rounded texture and subtle spice. That distinctive salty edge keeps the fruit in check, lending precision and making each sip feel both playful and poised. This is a wine made for immediate enjoyment, but it should drink beautifully over the next 1–2 years, maintaining its bright fruit and charming freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSchwarz und Weiß 2023 is sourced from vineyards in Baden, a region known for its warm, sunny climate and diverse soils that often include loess, limestone and clay – ideal for both Riesling and Pinot Meunier. The early-ripening Schwarzriesling (Pinot Meunier) was harvested at the beginning of September and set on a slow, carefully managed fermentation. Instead of rushing, Wengerter Und extended this fermentation over three to four weeks, patiently waiting for the later-picked Riesling to be harvested and added to the fermenting must. This co-fermentation approach is a nod to traditional Rotling styles, allowing the two varieties to integrate from the outset and building complexity through time rather than heavy extraction or oak. The focus is clearly on purity, texture and vibrant fruit, resulting in a wine that feels both artisanal and remarkably drinkable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Rotling is a natural partner for relaxed, flavorful summer dishes: think grilled prawns, charcuterie platters, fresh tomato salads, ceviche, or lightly spiced Asian-inspired cuisine such as sashimi, poke bowls or Vietnamese summer rolls. It also shines with Mediterranean fare like grilled vegetables, herbed chicken or soft, rind cheeses. Serve well chilled at around 8–10°C; a brief opening in the glass is usually enough, though a light splash-decant can help the aromatics open if served very cold. It’s an ideal terrace wine – as easy to enjoy on its own as it is at the center of a casual meal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWengerter Und is a small, quality-driven producer with a focus on expressive, site-reflective wines from Baden.
