Our Story
We once drank a bottle of natural wine … it changed our conception of wine and agriculture forever….we just could take the feeling out of our head… we were addicted…
Rocket Wine is an ongoing adventure that has taken us to the farthest reaches of the European natural wine world. We've picked grapes and tasted semi-fermented wines from unknown corners of the Jurassian countryside, to deep Bohemia, to the shores of alpen lakes to ancient German river towns. These voyages bring us closer to the soil and to the work of the fascinating people who have chosen to make wine for a living, wine that we import to Berlin.
We showcase a wide range of rare and always extraordinary wines from all the winemakers that we were lucky enough to have met and befriended along the way. We work with more than 60 different winemakers, but « work with » isn't really the perfect term for it, because we don’t just have a business relationship… we have built friendships over the years.
Rocket Wine grows with the seasons, and with our producers. We visit as many as we can, as often as we can, in person whenever we can. Our collection is alive, always changing, thanks to the creativity and perseverance of our friendly winemakers. We chose every bottle with patience, love and consideration and sometimes we even helped fill the vats. We knew these wines back when they were just a little juice.
Natural wine is all about passion, curiosity and the electric excitement of discovery. Come visit us at the shop and ask us anything. We have stories about every bottle, and every winemaker, and some of them are even educational. We are excited to share the energy with you!
