Weissburgunder Gutswein 2024

For generations, the Salwey family has tilled the black volcanic soil of the Kaiserstuhl. A mixed farm became a pure winery in the 1960s – today, Konrad Salwey manages its fortunes as the third generation. Approximately 40 hectares of vineyards, spread across the Kaiserstuhl and Glottertal, provide the stage. Here, the VDP winery's Burgundy varieties grow in all their facets – Weissburgunder, Grauburgunder, and Spätburgunder – along with some Riesling and old traditional vines. Salwey remains true to its clear philosophy: always dry, always Burgundy. The winemaking process follows a conviction, not a trend: spontaneous fermentation, plenty of patience in the barrel, little new oak, no frills. The result can be tasted from the clear, salty estate wine to the vibrant Spätburgunder from the Eichberg. Each wine bears the signature of the soil – loess provides juiciness, volcanic ash ensures grip and depth. This produces Burgundies that do not aim for pleasantness but for character. And that is precisely what makes Salwey one of the most exciting names in Southern Germany today.
