During previous Germany-East Tours by ombiasy WineTours we always went to the winery for a tasting of the wines of Uwe Lützkendorf.
This year, Annette had planned a winepairing dinner with Uwe Lützkendorf instead of a visit at his winery. As it turned out, the restaurant became interested in the event and opened it to the general public. As a result, we were about 30 people at the dinner.
Chef Robert Klaus and Winemaker Uwe Lüzkendorf were our hosts.
Hotel/ Restaurant Zufriedenheit
The Hotel and Restaurant Zufriedenheit opened in 2017. The restaurant got immediately recommended in the Michelin guide for Germany. The kitchen presents local and seasonal dishes of very high quality and with innovate new ideas. 13 points in the Gault Millau.
Weingut Lützkendorf
The winery Lützkendorf was founded at the dawn of the 19th century and existed until 1959 when the GDR authorities nationalized the property and integrated the estate into the government run Agricultural Cooperative. In 1991, after the reunification of the two German States the vineyards were returned to the family. Uwe Lützkendorf reestablished the winery, revamped the vineyards, and built new production facilities in Bad Kösen. The stony soils and the climate of this northern wine region decisively influences the character of the wines. Uwe Lützkendorf’s philosophy of wine making is as little intervention as possible to showcase the character of the terroir. In 1996 the winery Lützkendorf was the first estate in the Saale-Unstrut region to become member of the prestigious VDP, the Association of Germany’s Premium Winemakers. To listen to him, and also to his fellow winemakers in this former GDR area, recounting their stories of reviving an economic and agriculture waste land after German reunification, is living history and worthy of a spy thriller.
Sekt Reception
We started the evening with a Sekt Reception.
