Tomislav Markovic Pinot Noir Windspiel 2022
Vendor code : 1474
Tomislav Markovic is celebrated for his focus on terroir and organic methods. His Windspiel 2022 exemplifies this dedication. Windspiel is a natural red wine crafted from Pinot Noir grown in the biodynamic Herrenberg vineyard in the northeastern part of Kaiserstuhl. The vineyard’s southern exposure provides optimal sunlight, while surrounding oak forests on three sides create a unique microclimate. The site’s high elevation, forest setting, and the mountain peak's shade to the west contribute to cooler evenings, helping to preserve the grapes' bright acidity. This wine is ideal for enthusiasts of terroir-driven German Pinot Noir with a distinctive artisanal character.

Tomislav Markovic Pinot Noir Windspiel 2022 captures the distinct character of Baden's terroir, with the vineyard providing ideal conditions for Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). This 2022 vintage opens with aromas of violets, autumn woods, red berries, and subtle spices, complemented by a hint of porcini mushrooms. Marković’s expertise and the vineyard’s unique attributes are evident in the soft tannins, silky structure, and palpable freshness. Tomislav Marković's Pinot Noir Windspiel 2022 is a must-have for those seeking the nuance and expressiveness of German Pinot Noir. During production, the wine is macerated from whole bunches, fermented with natural yeasts in open fermenters, then pressed and aged for 14 months in oak barrels.
Tomislav Marković’s winery, established in 2016, is nestled in Breisach am Rhein in the renowned Kaiserstuhl area of Germany's Baden wine region. The journey began with a vineyard acquired in 2019, planted with Loire-origin Sauvignon Blanc, followed by Germany’s first planting of drought-tolerant Touriga Nacional vines in 2021. The winery cultivates 0.5 hectares of self-owned vines in Baden and sources another 0.5 hectares from Rheinhessen. Key vineyard sites include Teufelsburg, Eckberg, and Käsleberg in Baden, as well as Goldenes Horn and Heerkretz in Rheinhessen. Marković’s range includes Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Riesling, alongside Pinot Noir and Touriga Nacional. Practicing biodynamic, hand-tended viticulture, he emphasizes biodiversity, soil health, and low-yield cultivation, producing wines that reflect a commitment to terroir and sustainable viticulture.
