About this wine
Character
A Weissburgunder that favours contour over fullness. The aromatics stay cool, the line clear, a saline thread carrying through to the finish.
Terroir and origin
The Oberbergener Pulverbuck site lies in the Kaiserstuhl in Baden and is classified as a VDP Erste Lage. The volcanic soils give the estate's wines their mineral character. The Franz Keller estate has existed since 1892 and today farms 35 hectares, including six VDP Grosse Lagen. Friedrich Keller has run it since 2016, the fourth generation, and is gradually converting the vineyards to organic farming with biodynamic elements.
Grape variety and vinification
Pure varietal Weissburgunder, vinified dry, 12.5% vol. The winery, completed in 2013, is built in terraces into the hillside and operates on the gravity-flow principle, keeping technology in the background. Uwe Barnickel and Christian Häuber oversee the ageing according to the house principle of "as little as possible, as much as necessary".
On the palate
Pale straw yellow with greenish highlights. On the nose, white peach, green apple and citrus fruit, alongside a stony spice. The wine remains lean, the acidity lively, the finish saline to chalky.
Food pairings
Steamed zander with a light sauce, asparagus in any form, roasted saddle of veal or risotto with green asparagus and parmesan. Also pairs well with sushi and finely sliced veal tartare.
Special features
The estate is home to the restaurant Schwarzer Adler, which has held a Michelin star continuously since 1969; Irma Keller was the first female German chef to earn one there. The winery's roof is planted with native species from the Badberg nature reserve.
