New Cult German Pinot Noir | Charlotte & David Beck

Charlotte & David Beck, Jechtingen am Kaiserstuhl - Baden

Following up on this morning's offer is another highly recommended discovery - pinot noir from Charlotte & David Beck.  The wines are taut, complex, and finely balanced.

They farm just 1.5 hectares - a handful of exceptional sites.  The pinot noir vines average 35 years, from dramatic terraced vineyards planted on weathered, iron-rich volcanic soils characteristic of the Kaiserstuhl.

The wines are made with whole-cluster inclusion, fermentation started with an ambient yeast, aged in neutral barrels.  There is no filtration or fining, they add just a touch of sulfur before bottling. The entire operation is certified organic with biodynamic practices - no tilling since 2018, no tractors, all manual work.

With production limited to just a few barrels of each wine, and a total of barely 3,000 bottles in "good years," they have quietly earned a cult following that far exceeds demand.
