- Land: Weingut Baumberger, located in Germany's Nahe region, benefits from the rich and diverse terroirs conducive to growing Spätburgunder. The specific vineyard, Mandeler Dellchen, offers conditions that help cultivate grapes with the complexity and depth needed for premium red wine production.
- Wine: The 2022 'Glow Glow' Spätburgunder is a still red wine that sets a new standard for the vintage. With 75% of the grapes undergoing carbonic maceration and the remainder being destemmed and skin fermented for a week, this process enhances the wine’s fruity qualities and softens its tannins. After fermentation, the wine is blended and aged in large, old oak fuders, which subtly influences its flavor profile without overshadowing the natural characteristics of the grape.
- People: This wine is part of a special project by Weingut Baumberger in collaboration with Vom Boden, the German importer known for its innovative German wines.

The Nahe, a German wine region nestled between the Rheingau, Rheinhessen, and Mosel, is known for its remarkable diversity and elegance. While Riesling is its flagship grape, the Nahe's varied terroir is its defining feature. Volcanic porphyry, slate, quartzite, loam, and gravel soils contribute to a wide spectrum of wine styles, all unified by a distinct minerality and vibrant acidity. Nahe Rieslings, often dry or off-dry, are celebrated for their finesse, balance, and compelling expression of their diverse origins. This region, while sometimes overlooked, offers a compelling and nuanced perspective on German Riesling, marked by both elegance and a unique mineral complexity

Pinot Noir is a thin-skinned, notoriously difficult-to-grow, low-yielding grape that finds its ancestral home in Burgundy, France, where it produces some of the world's most elegant and nuanced wines. While Burgundy remains its spiritual heartland, Pinot Noir has since traveled the globe, finding success in other cooler climates, notably in California, Oregon, New Zealand, and Germany. This grape is a challenge for any grower, as it requires specific conditions to show its best, and yet the wines it produces are capable of such a captivating and singular character.

Practicing Organic vineyard farming involves growing grapes using organic methods—avoiding synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides—but without formal certification. Wineries adopting this approach prioritize environmental health, soil vitality, and biodiversity, using natural practices such as composting, cover cropping, and manual pest control. Many small wineries opt for practicing organic methods rather than pursuing official organic certification, primarily due to the significant cost, paperwork, and time commitment involved in certification processes. As a result, practicing organic is a popular choice among boutique and artisanal producers who remain committed to sustainable agriculture while managing budgetary constraints.
