The Markgr\u00e4flerland, whose culture has been shaped by its position within the triborder area of Germany, Switzerland and France, presents itself as warm-hearted and quality-conscious. Its cosmopolitan attitude is legendary, not least because it brought to the region its most famous vine: In 1780 on an excursion to Switzerland the margrave of Baden first encountered the Gutedel \u2013 which is known as Fendant or Chasselas in Switzerland \u2013 and decided to cultivate this vine in the fertile loamy soil of his home. This mild white wine with its low acidity is still today being cultivated there.<\/p>\n
Based on a history of traditions, but open for change, the Markgr\u00e4flerland exhibits an attentive curiosity that has always been inspired by its position within the triborder area and its guests that come from all over the world.<\/p>\n
A lot of sun, moderate rainfall and warm winds from the South-West that drift through the Belfort Gap into the Upper Rhine Valley characterize the climate of the Markgr\u00e4flerland. Already the Romans appreciated its sun and geographic location. On their way across the Alpes, they brought vines along, planted them at the green slopes of today’s southern Baden and thus established its century-old tradition of viticulture.<\/p>\n
Today, the Markgr\u00e4flerland presents itself justifiably self-confident: securely based within its long history yet open for innovation. This same philosophy can also be witnessed at L\u00e4mmlin-Schindler, who are always in harmony with its natural environment, with the soil and the knowledge about which varieties will bring along a supplement and enhancement of quality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
