Helmut Dolde

In the shadow of a fairytale castle, at elevations up to 530 meters above sea level, Helmut and Hedwig Dolde grow many varieties with integrity and care in some of the most exciting terroirs we have seen: Weiße Jura, small plots of volcanic soils in and around the villages of Linsenhofen and Neuffen, and Braune Jura. These delicious drinks epitomize “mountain wines.” Pure as an alpine stream, they invigorate, refresh, and keep us coming back for more.

About the Winemaker

Helmut Dolde

Nestled beneath a picturesque castle, Helmut and Hedwig Dolde cultivate Silvaner, Pinots (Noir and Blanc), Riesling, and a few other varietals with meticulous care in the captivating terroirs of Weiße Jura, volcanic soils around Linsenhofen and Neuffen, and Braune Jura near Metzingen. Despite their small domaine, they craft remarkable ciders from apples and black pears, along with impeccably pure wild fruit distillates. Their wines, reminiscent of the Sound of Music rather than the Swabian Jura, embody the essence of "mountain wines," pristine as alpine streams, continually enticing us back for more with their invigorating freshness.
