Comment

Many dry wines at reasonable prices are made here. The style is more international than in the other regions, reflecting the relatively warm climate of Baden. The best wines deserve serious consideration, but they are by no means cheap, and I have yet to come across a truly great wine (rather than just a very good one), by international standards. Some excellent Rieslings are made around Durbach, but Pinot varieties are more popular, especially at the Kaiserstuhl. Germany's best ``new wave" Spätburgunders tend to be made here.
