The Best Wine Bars in Baden-Wuerttemberg
Bernd Kreis, a former sommelier and experienced wine merchant, is behind the wine bar concept. His selection is not only interesting, but also exciting. This is especially true of the French selection, which always offers new discoveries. First-class recommendations!
The name doesn't always live up to its promise, but at the Spelunkerei, Michael Schokatz and Antonio Baratta combine a relaxed atmosphere with super-friendly service, very good local home cooking and an excellent selection of wines.
New spot with high-end ambience on the edge of the red light district. Between dark wood and walls with decorative shelves, high quality open wines and also Champagne are served. From the delicatessen assortment there are various tasting plates and specialities from the jar to go with fresh bread.
This restaurant, located on the edge of the Bohnenviertel district, is exceptional not only because of the 250 canned fish and over 100 wines on offer, but also because of the owner. At the age of 76, Helmut Honold has turned his love of food and drink into a profession.
Stylishly furnished wine bar in which ex-music producer Alexander Dohnt fulfilled his dream of owning his own bar. Anyone looking for special wines and spirits will find their happiness here. The menu is also impressive: the flash-fried tartare is legendary in Stuttgart.
The Baden character of the people of Karlsruhe sometimes masks it, but in some places the city is truly urban. Take Aurum, for example. Whether you opt for one of the many wines or a drink, a cheerful evening is guaranteed in this stylish bar.
Nicolas Sigloch calls his bar in the south of Stuttgart Germany's first "self-exploring wine experience". The concept is ingenious: 100 different wines are waiting in vending machines, to be tasted at the touch of a button. Payment is made with a pre-loaded card.
The impact was huge when Friedrich and Vincent Keller opened their own wine bar. After all, their father Fritz is one of the best-known winegrowers and restaurateurs in the country. But they didn't let this put them off and established their Trotte as a permanent fixture - almost 500 wines speak for themselves.
Imagine being able to walk through a wine cellar and take a sip from every bottle on offer. There are also perfectly matched dishes that don't take centre stage, but accompany the wine.
Cute wine and cocktail bar in the three-star Burg Aasen Hotel. In addition to a large selection of regional wines, the menu offers classics from France, Switzerland and Italy as well as a wide range of spirits. Finely balanced dishes round off the offer.
Small but fine location with a long communal table. Wines with a focus on Württemberg; every month a different winery is the focus. Cheese, sausage and bread from the Hofpfisterei - and homemade Maultaschen to take home from the Paulaner Inn on the old Postplatz next door.
Maerz and Maerz - two brothers who wanted to reach the stars, but then preferred to grab them themselves. At least one. For now. And what it takes to cook this up is also evident at the bar. Precision, craftsmanship and assertiveness. But also humour.
Small location in the tranquil 'Bean District' with an outdoor area on cobblestones. With wines mainly from Tuscany and the region, there are antipasti plates, anchovies and olives, but also pasta and risotto on the changing daily menu.
Dios mio, how you miss this country when you look at your calendar for the third time in a week and your holiday still doesn't come any sooner. Then you just sit down at the long wooden table, and after the second glass at the latest, the rolling R also works.
Changing selection of open wines from neighbouring France, Austria and Italy, also Champagne from Bollinger and Pol Roger. Panini, grissini, parmesan, olives etc. are also available, as well as coffee and cake during the day. Lively outdoor area in the pedestrian zone.

In the small room next to the "Ratskeller" with a long bar table, wines from the municipal winery are served, but also representatives from Baden, the Pfalz, and sometimes international wines. In addition there are Swabian tapas in small jars and also cheese, salami and olives. Terrace facing the marketplace.
