The story

The late self-taught winegrower has established himself at the top of the Baden winegrowing scene with his internationally acclaimed Pinot Noir. His family has been growing grapes and farming in Schlatt for generations and it was here that he first came into contact with working in the vines. Since then, it has never let go of him. Even though it would be a few years before Fritz Waßmer produced his own wine, the foundations for a great love were laid at a young age.

Since Fritz Waßmer founded the winery in 1998, he has pursued his own style of wine: independent, finesse-rich and profound wines.

His passion for Pinot Noir is reflected in his special connection to Burgundy, the cradle of Pinot Noir, in his daily work as a winemaker.

Fritz Waßmer devotes himself with the same dedication to the cultivation and development of Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Auxerrois and Frühburgunder. As proof of his constantly creative work, plots of Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier, which is very rare in Germany, have been added in recent years.

Our actions

In our daily work, we strive to maintain and perfect our own style. Every location, every soil, every variety and every microclimatic condition is different from the next. We want to make these differences tangible and tangible. Our aim is to preserve the unique character of each vineyard and each grape variety and thus create individual wines of outstanding quality. Just as the vines need their time, our wine also needs time to unfold and develop its own complex structure, which makes it so special.

Our team

Enjoying wine often becomes an unforgettable experience in company. Even the extension and expansion can only succeed with many helping hands. With all the valuable people who help us every day at the winery – be it in the vines, in the cellar or in the wine shop – we move towards our goal together every day.
