Geschichte zur Rebsorte

The Schwarz-Urban tells the story of a nearly forgotten treasure of wine tradition. A descendant of the Trollinger (Vernatsch), it originally comes from the Croatian wine-growing villages of Vrban and Vernaz. In the Middle Ages, the Hohenstaufen family brought it via Lombardy to Stuttgart, where it was cultivated alongside the Trollinger for a long time. While the Trollinger is still popular today, the equally valuable Schwarzurban was lost and forgotten about 200 years ago – until now. Enjoy the renaissance of a special, indigenous rarity with every sip!

Wine description

Tasting 09/13/2024: There are darker wines than the 2020 Sweet Black. There are also significantly sweeter ones, as it has absolutely no residual sugar. What our ancestors meant by the name, however, becomes immediately apparent at the first sip: The Sweet Black has fruit in abundance, indeed black cherry, red plum, wood smoke, and a hint of peppery spice. The additional year in the bottle has harmonized the slightly wild youthful notes. The Sweet Black has become velvety, and together with the attractive fruit, this ensures that you're already inclined to sip one, two, or three solo sips before the meal even arrives.

The vine - the original variety of our cultivated vines

Location: Only a few plants have survived on Gipskeuper on the Saale and on the western edge of the Steigerwald.

History: This rediscovered grape variety with the origin number 528 was cultivated by our ancestors over 8,000 years ago. What makes it so special? Perhaps its versatile uses, whether as a red wine or as a "white-vinified red wine" (Blanc de Noir)?
It is related to Traminer, Sauvignon, Hartblau and Elbling and is probably the mother of our Pinot Noir.
You can find out more about this very valuable grape variety in the certificate of origin.

The winemaker and grape breeder

In addition to his nursery, Ulrich Martin cultivates his own vineyards, which he uses as mother orchards for vine production. The grapes from his mother orchards are vinified to the highest standards of craftsmanship. The result is wines from almost extinct original varieties, which are being vinified as single varietals for the first time in their millennia-old history. You now have the unique opportunity to purchase wines from this small, exclusive portfolio. Become an "archaeologist" of wine aromas.
