METAMORPHOSIS FROM
WONNEGAU TO WORLD CLASS -
The world of Fine Wines
keller
In Mark Helprin's beautifully written novel A
Soldier of the Great War the aging hero describes
lying under a tree on a summer day and the
intense pleasure he takes in his futile attempts to
count all the shades of green present in the
foliage at any one moment.

Try it sometime.

There is something transcendent about focusing
on the individual details that make up a beautiful
whole.  Almost imperceptibly, one's attention
shifts from textures and nuances of an individual
leaf to the contrast between the deep brown of a
branch, to the general green of the tree framed
against the summer sky.  What is more
rewarding, the details or the whole? On what
grounds might one aspect be considered more
pleasurable than another?  

Klaus Peter Keller's wines contain all the beauty,
the incredulity, and the wonder of a mature tree
framed by the deep blue sky of an August day.  If
you let your self be swept away by their depth,
you'll soon be lost in both their details and their
remarkable complexity.

These wines have a power to make wine lovers
happy in complex and contradictory ways.  They
are as rich and deep as they are crisp and clean.  
They are at once hedonistic and intellectual.  
They inspire prose and demand silence.

Keller's wines contain what we hope for in every
bottle we open and so rarely find.  They are why
we drink wine.

Eric Asimov, from the New York Times, writes
that Keller's "single-vineyard wines labeled
grosses gewäches, a newly devised term that
ought to be the equivalent of the French grand
cru" are "hard to find".  He should call Candid!
