Karl Haidle

Württemberg | Stetten

“There’s a change coming. Württemberg is getting more and more interesting. We’re right in the middle of it,” says Moritz Haidle. It only takes a few minutes in his company to feel his sparking energy and ideas. But to stand in his vineyards, walk the old-cask-lined cellar built into the very hill those vineyards climb, and above all taste through his extraordinary, ever more focused, dynamic, and expressive wines is all the convincing you’ll need.

Karl Haidle 2021 Sämling 2530 (Kerner) "Naturwein"

Karl Haidle was among the first ever to plant the Kerner grape variety, at a time when the variety was still simply called Sämling 2530. With this wine Haidle honors its historical tradition. The grapes grow on Gipskeuper – red clay with deposits of gypsum and chalky topsoil – on vines that are over 40 years old. The wine is processed with extended skin maceration and native yeast fermentation in old German (1200L barrels), followed by 6 months elevage. The wine is then bottled unfiltered and without added sulfur. The result is an independent Kerner with strong aromas of citrus, stone-fruits and floral nuts with a bold palate with strong minerality and berry like acidity.
