When most vineyards were struggling with all the downey mildew pressure in 2021 the Schwarzriesling (Pinot Meunier) vineyard was shining. Time for a new Bat-Nat!
In 2014 they took over a vineyard situated in the town of Kitzingen where their winery is situated too. It used to be outside of town but over time houses and gardens grew around it, it’s a very unusual and unlikely place. Shortly after posting the first pictures of the vineyard they met a guy who dedicates a good part of his life to the bats of their area.
Together with local bat hero Christian Soder they developed the idea of a cycle: they get guano from local bat colonies – a wonderful fertilizer. In return they give a share of the revenue back to the bats via the Landesbund fur Vogelschuts. And they put a bunch of bat boxes in the vineyard to offer opportunities for those lovely animals to hang out as they hunt at night – about 15 different species as Christian found out! The bat on the label is the grey long-eared bat which has become very rare in their area. It’s also incredibly cute and they want to help it stay around.
All their grapes come from their organically farmed vineyards. All vineyards are either certified or in the certification process. If a wine is not labelled organic or in conversion it’s likely because a new vineyard didn’t make it in the certification process in time. The grapes from their own vineyards are harvested by hand. All 2Naturkinder wines are bottled without filtration or the addition of SO2 or anything else.
