About the winemaker

"The history of our winery dates back to the year 1624. The house originally served as a coach house, where horses could rest from a long journey and the coachman could enjoy a good glass of wine from the house. For generations, the house was owned by the Blankenhorn family, until Rosie Blankenhorn couldn't find a successor within her family. She handed it over to us in 2014 and since then we have been working hard to perpetuate its centuries-old history.

Beoordeeld met 91/100 Punten - Falstaff 

“After aeration fragrances of crunchy light fruits (green apple, pear), peach blossom, some crushed rock and delicate smoke emerge. On the palate balanced acidity, grip, delicate fruit, balm, refined phenolics and good structure. Versatile.”

Perswijn: wijn van het jaar 2023

Wat is het toch leuk dat er zulke verrassende winnaars worden gekozen. Misschien zegt gutedel u weinig, maar het is de Duitse naam voor chasselas. Dit druivenras was ooit alom aangeplant in delen van West- en Midden-Europa, ook omdat hij dienstdeed als tafeldruif. Tegenwoordig staat chasselas nog vooral aangeplant bij het Meer van Genève, en hier en daar nog in de Elzas en Zuidwest-Baden. Het Markgräflerland, waar hij Gutedel heet, is de hotspot. De naam zegt veel over hoe de variëteit vroeger werd beschouwd. Bij Blankenhorn, een wijngoed met een grote traditie, dat in 2014 werd overgedaan aan Yvonne en Martin Männer, staat gutedel nog steeds in goed aanzien. Ze maken onder meer deze Gutswein, een lichte en heel eigentijdse wijn met maar 11,5% alcohol, fijne zuren en een heel klein zoetje. Een heerlijke, originele dorstlesser.

Baden, Germany

Due to its southern location, Baden is the warmest wine region in Germany. Weingut Blankenhorn is located just about exactly on the border triangle with France and Switzerland. The climate is comparable to that of Burgundy in France, so Burgundy grapes like pinot noir and chardonnay do extremely well here. Gutedel is a grape that also does tremendously well here, it is an unknown grape better known in Switzerland as chasselass. It is a fairly neutral grape variety that gains character depending on the soil it is planted on. On the chalky soil of Baden, it gives wines with enormous minerality, exciting citrus aromas and a balanced acid structure.
