Freiherr von Gleichenstein

Baden Spätburgunder and Chardonnay from the Oberrotweiler Eichberg vineyard.

Freiherr von Gleichenstein produces wines from Baden, Germany's warmest wine region, where continental influences and varied soils create conditions for ripe, structured reds and whites. The winery focuses on Spätburgunder and Chardonnay, both aged in barrique. The Oberrotweiler Eichberg Spätburgunder Barrique Trocken and Baron Philipp—both Spätburgunder—demonstrate the region's capacity for Pinot Noir with depth and complexity. A Chardonnay from the same vineyard site rounds the portfolio. Wine Spectator and Falstaff have rated these wines, reflecting their standing among prestige critics. Baden's warm climate and diverse terroir allow for full phenolic ripeness in both red and white varieties, a character evident in the winery's barrel-aged approach.
