Marto
Germany
Despite having only produced his first independant vintage in 2016, Martin Wörner (better known as Marto) is already one of Germany's most in-demand natural wine producers. The 27-year-old is fully invested in natural processes, and works all 5 hectares of his family vineyard in Flonheim organically and with some biodynamic principles.
He has adopted a ground-up approach, focussing on soil health first. He uses cover crops throughout the vineyards to prevent erosion, allows sheep to roam free to keep grasses at bay, and refrains from tilling.
Grapes are harvested by hand, and only indigenous, natural yeasts are added in the winery. The wine is left to do it’s thing free of refining, filtration, and added sulphur. With wines like the Weiss blend, Marto has made a huge name for himself in a very short space of time, and is certainly a producer to keep your eye on for the future!
