Daniel Schweizer

kontakt_large.jpg

Daniel Schweizer is a naturalist to his core.  Hailing from Württemberg, Germany; one of the few areas more known for their red wine production than white wine.  He works with a vast array of varietals from classic favorites like Syrah to more obscure grapes like Samtrot and Muskattrollinger, as well as having a strong focus on working with hybrid varietals (PIWI) due to their strong resistance to disease and ability to farm without the use of pesticides and herbicides.

​

Daniel is combining today’s winemaking knowledge with the craft and the understanding of nature of days gone by. His philosophy shows in the vineyard, where he farms his 3 hectares exclusively with the help of his horses, having recently sold his tractor with the belief that less is more. Working in as much a hands-off approach as possible, he ties his vines with willow branch clippings rather than bringing plastic into the vineyard. He believes that a vineyard can give back more to the land it inhabits and leave it richer than how it began. In his own words “I like it alive in my vineyards. I focus on working with nature, not against it.”
 

All of his wines are labeled with bottle production, rather than cases. Made in extremely small quantities.
