Description
Ziereisen is located in the very southern part of Baden in a town called Efringen-Kirchen, on the Rhine river at the border of Alsace and Switzerland. The area is called the Dreiländereck – the “three country corner”: Basel, Switzerland is the closest city, just 15 kilometres south.
Two years in large (3,000 litre) cask, the site is limestone, high-elevation and windy giving this wine a refined aroma and a superb palate. Chemical fertilizers and sprays are strictly avoided in the vineyard, though the estate is not certified organic.
