Weingut Wasenhaus, Chardonnay Hohlen, Baden, 2023
Wasenhaus was founded by Burgundian-trained winemakers Christoph and Alex Götze and has quickly become one of Germany’s most closely followed estates for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Hohlen comes from the Zunzinger Rosenberg site in southern Baden, where limestone-rich soils and a cooler hillside exposure shape wines with freshness, structure, and mineral character. Farmed organically and produced with a restrained, low-intervention approach, the wine reflects both the precision of the site and the estate’s Burgundian influence.
The 2023 vintage is layered and finely textured, offering notes of lemon curd, yellow apple, white flowers, hazelnut, and crushed stone alongside subtle smoky reduction. The palate is focused and mineral-driven, balancing bright acidity with a deep, saline core and a long, persistent finish. Elegant yet powerful, the wine captures the tension and detail that define Wasenhaus Chardonnay.
Varietal: Chardonnay
Appellation: Landwein, Baden, Germany
Farming: Organic; low-intervention
Style: White. Structured, mineral-driven, and finely textured
