Weingut Wasenhaus, Spätburgunder Bellen, Baden, 2023
Wasenhaus was founded by Burgundian-trained winemakers Christoph and Alex Götze and has become one of Germany’s most closely watched estates for Pinot Noir. Bellen is sourced from limestone-rich vineyard sites in Baden, where cooler exposures and careful farming produce Spätburgunder with freshness, aromatic lift, and fine structure. Made with a restrained, low-intervention approach and aged in French oak, the wine reflects both the estate’s Burgundian influence and the distinct character of Baden.
The 2023 vintage is vibrant and finely detailed, offering notes of wild strawberry, red cherry, cranberry, rose petal, and forest floor alongside subtle spice and smoky mineral tones. The palate is silky and energetic, balancing bright acidity with fine tannins and a long, savory finish. Elegant yet structured, the wine captures the lifted, mineral-driven style that has made Wasenhaus one of the most exciting names in German Pinot Noir.
Varietal: Spätburgunder
Appellation: Landwein, Baden, Germany
Farming: Organic; low-intervention
Style: Red. Elegant, savory, and finely structured
