Chameleon wine Konrad: About us
Nora and Mathis Konrad
Chameleon wine Konrad is a small garage winery located in Schriesheim (wine region "Badische Bergstraße"). The winery is operated by me, Nora Konrad (trained winemaker) and Mathis Konrad (medical physicist and co-founder). We both grew up in northern Germany. I grew up close to Münster, Mathis in the region Emsland. Our paths crossed while studying in Bremen.
The path to viticulture
After completing my studies (political science and foreign languages), I dared to make a new start in a skilled trade and began a two-year formal apprenticeship in winemaking. Therefore we moved to Palatinate (Pfalz) where I completed my entire training and Mathis gained his first experience in viticulture. In the following years we worked at various renowned wineries at home and abroad, mostly at ecologically working wineries. Among others they were the wineries Isegrim and Koehler-Ruprecht in Palatinate, Aigner in Wachau, Château des Rontets in Burgundy, Clos Henri, Framingham and Stonyridge Vineyard in New Zealand.
The foundation of Chameleon wine Konrad
In 2022, Mathis returned to his work as a physicist, started research, and became a doctoral candidate at Heidelberg University Hospital. This brought us to Schriesheim, near Heidelberg. As our vineyards lie just across the Rhine Valley, we are almost back at the starting point of our winemaking journey.
After many travels and winding paths, our journey continues—now not through the world, but at our own winery: Chameleon Wine Konrad.
