Where to taste Muskateller in Baden: the estates that grow it, how the region expresses the grape, and how to book a visit.
ECOVIN-certified organic estate in Bischoffingen on the Kaiserstuhl, farming 35 hectares of Burgunder varieties and Muskateller alongside a Cremant program.
Tasting: Cellar-door tastings at the Bischoffingen estate, which also produces Cremant.
Tip: Ask for the Cremant if you want the estate's sparkling take on Kaiserstuhl Burgunder.
Durbach estate on the Ortenau's granite and gneiss Plauelrain slope, majority Riesling (locally called Klingelberger) with a 2016 Eiswein that won the AWC Vienna world championship.
Tasting: Three generations work the Durbach estate together; tastings by appointment on the Plauelrain slope.
Tip: Riesling here is sold under the local name Klingelberger; don't expect Kaiserstuhl Burgunder styles.
State research-institute winery in Freiburg farming the Schlossberg Grosse Lage in the city itself plus a second site at Ihringen on the Kaiserstuhl, ECOVIN organic-certified since founding in 1926.
Tasting: Two vinotheks, one in Freiburg and one at Blankenhornsberg, plus an online shop; part of the state viticulture research institute.
Tip: The Freiburg Schlossberg vineyard is walkable from the city centre, no separate Kaiserstuhl trip required.
