Trollinger, Pinot Noir & Other Miracles

The Wine of Baden-Württemberg

Welcome to the Wine Regions of Southwest Germany
Even if you’re just a water – or beer – drinker, the Weinsüden produces remarkable fruit that shapes the regions. Vineyards serve as landmarks, pointing you to especially scenic landscapes. Our grapes love one thing above all: the sun. And for wine lovers, the wine-growing regions of Baden and Württemberg rank among Germany’s finest – offering a paradise for hiking, cycling, and gathering with friends over a glass of the good stuff.

Wine Regions of Baden-Württemberg

A Toast to the Sunlit Slopes of Baden-Württemberg
In the Kaiserstuhl and Markgräflerland regions, vineyards bask in extended sunlight. Baden is therefore the only German wine region classified in the sunny EU Wine Zone B. Leading wine experts rave: Baden rivals its French neighbors in excellence. Württemberg, known for Trollinger, Lemberger, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir is a classic red wine region. Unique Rieslings also thrive in Württemberg. Like its steep slopes along the Neckar River, Württemberg’s wine reputation is on a steep ascent.
