The Goldwand – History and Delight
The Goldwand in Aargau has been a magnet for pleasure and relaxation for centuries. As far back as 2,000 years ago, the Romans discovered healing thermal springs here. This unique geology gives the wines of the Goldwand their distinctive character.
The Baden City Wine
On the terraced steep slopes of the Goldwand, around 15,000 bottles of Baden City Wine are produced on 2.4 hectares. Mainly made from Blauburgunder (Pinot Noir) grapes, it delights as Federweiss, barrel selection, or Reserve Barrique.
Family Wetzel – Winemaking with Passion
The Wetzel family is a cornerstone of Baden's winemaking tradition. For generations, they have lived their passion for wine. Today, the brothers Jürg, Martin, and Michael run three wineries in the region, supported by the next generation. Here, wine is not just produced, but lived.
Since 1986, Martin Wetzel and his wife have been producing first-class wines in Würenlos. Their steep vineyards, descending towards the Limmat River at the Wetzel Winery, offer ideal conditions for premium wines.
For the past 35 years, Michael Wetzel has been leading the "Goldwand" winery above the Limmat bend. On 9.2 hectares, exquisite wines are produced, which can be tasted at wine tastings and the popular "Trottentage" in the old Spitaltrotte. Here, tradition and enjoyment come together.
