Jonas Seckinger’s wines have some producers in Southern Pfalz scratching their heads with confusion, meanwhile Germany’s new generation of cork dorks are sipping away gleefully. Seckinger produced his first wine at the age of 17, initially experimenting with an old wooden press in his parents’ garage. Zügellos translates to “unbridled”, or something uncontrolled and unrestrained. As sour beer drinkers will know, sour is an acquired taste in a beverage, and this wine ticks all the right boxes. This rakish style wine is mouth-puckering, citrusy, and bone dry with an almost savory quality to it. It’s aged in (German) oak barrels on native yeasts, just like a traditional Lambic beer.
