Oliver Zeter | Pfalz, Germany
Oliver Zeter is a dynamic winemaker with a unique story, rooted in Germany’s Pfalz region. Known for his world-class Sauvignon Blanc, Oliver's journey into winemaking began later in life, transitioning from wine merchant to vintner at 40, with no vineyard or equipment, just a bold vision. Now, his wines are highly regarded, with the iconic "drinking bear" label, inspired by a family legacy, symbolising the character and playfulness behind his creations.
Focusing on a wide range of varietals, from Pinot Noir and Riesling to more adventurous grapes like Chenin Blanc, Syrah, and Viognier, Oliver’s approach is all about balance. His wines are designed to complement food, favouring structure and elegance over bold fruit flavours. With a deep respect for the Pfalz's varied terroirs, Oliver crafts wines that reflect the uniqueness of each vineyard site.
