2 editor-picked estates growing Blaufraenkisch in Baden.
Where to taste Blaufraenkisch in Baden: the estates that grow it, how the region expresses the grape, and how to book a visit.
Kraichgau family estate at Bruchsal working Burgundy varieties and Blaufraenkisch with uncertified organic practice, a quieter alternative to the Kaiserstuhl's better-known names.
Tip: The estate keeps regular Monday to Saturday hours, easier to work into a Karlsruhe day trip than most appointment-only Kaiserstuhl addresses.
Younger sibling estate to Durbach's better-known Andreas Laible, run independently since 2007 by a 13th-generation family winemaker working Chardonnay, Blaufraenkisch, Sekt and gin.
Tip: Come for the Chardonnay and stay for the gin, an unusual pairing for a Durbach grower and a good way to taste the estate's range beyond Riesling.
