The Wasenhaus estate is tiny, little more than a minuscule collection of old-vine parcels farmed by two Germans who met working in Burgundy years ago.
The size of the estate belies their cult status.

The wines are jaw-droppingly good. People freak out over them once they've tasted them and enthusiastically spread the word. In no time, finding the wines in quantity became almost impossible.
Today, we're happy to offer an extensive list of Wasenhaus' wines across a number of vintages, including large formats.
Their work with Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc) stretches the possibilities of the grape so far that it simply transcends prior horizons. These are singularly compelling examples of Weissburgunder and shouldn't be missed.
We should also call attention to the Kanzel bottling. This is a site that Wasenhaus acquired from the legendary producer Henrik Möbitz when he stopped making wine. The site produces wines that boast a magical combination of density and concentration with clarity and lightness.
There are plenty of rarities in the list below. As you can imagine, the availability of the wines is extremely limited. Please give us your ideal order, and we'll try our best.
