The Pfalz is bordered on the north by Rheinhessen and on the south and west by France. For 80 kilometers, only vines stretch in front of you. This is the second largest wine region in Germany, but often the first in terms of production. The history of the Bassermann-Jordan winery is linked to the history of wine production in Pfalz. In 1718, Pierre Jordan bought the family's first vineyards in Pfalz, and Johann-Peter Jordan built the winery in Deidesheim sixty-five years later. At the turn of the century, Andreas Jordan was one of the first winemakers to vinify each plot with Riesling separately. The marriage between the Bassermann and Jordan families added the name Bassermann to the winery in 1883. The world-famous German writer and admirer of wine, Goethe, was a client in the early 19th century. Today, Bassermann-Jordan is among the top echelons in the world of wine estates.
