Although Weingut Emil Bauer grew to prominence through the production of its white wines, its reds shouldn't be underestimated. Like many German wine producers, Emil Bauer has planted many classic grape varieties, including Spatburgunder. While this grape is relatively unknown under its German name, it is quite famous among wine drinkers under its French name. Spatburgunder is, after all, the German name for Pinot Noir!
