Stumbled over this couple in an article in (AFAIKR) the Frankfurter Allgemeine about young vintners sometime last year.

They have 3ha (which is bugger all) in Stutttgart, limit their yield to achieve better wines and brand them themselves “RUX” (from “Rucks”..)

Monday 12:33: pdf price list arrives

Monday 12:42: Order 12 bottles

Along with a hand-written note, thanking us for our interest and order.
