The Keller Winery is one of Germany’s leading estates – though not just for Riesling. With Felix Keller, the son of Klaus-Peter Keller, the focus is increasingly shifting to the red wines. At Zellerweg am Schwarzen Herrgott, a limestone vineyard in the cool Zell Valley, the Kellers are experimenting, among other things, with high-density planting. On the nose, the iron-rich minerality is reminiscent of blood, accompanied by dried rose petals, dark spice and an almost earthy quality. Over time, ever-new layers open up without the wine losing its focused character. On the palate, fine-grained tannins and crisp acidity create tremendous tension.

Pinot Noir / Pinot Nero
