Description
History
Bernhard Huber’s professional career and connection with his land are closely linked to the production of Pinot Noir, known locally as Spätburgunder. The Baden region has a long tradition of cultivating this noble red grape variety. As early as the 13th century, the Cistercian monks who dedicated themselves to research and microzoning noticed the strong pedoclimatic analogy between Burgundy and this German region, located between Alsace, the Rhine and the Black Forest. Bernhard, from the earliest times, understood the importance of these historical roots and started a project to restructure local viticulture, which was still too anchored to the cooperative realities of the decades preceding the war. Today, Bernhard’s wife, Barbara, and son Julian, produce 5 different varieties of wine, among which the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir stand out, which have been defined “the best in Germany and among the best ever” by Jancis Robinson .
