Although born into a viticultural family, Christoph Heiss didn't join the wine game until he was 18, first working in a Sauvignon Blanc cranking winery in New Zealand, then for Riesling Trocken wizards, Dr. Burklin Wolf in the Pfalz. After a few harvests in South African he returned to the family estate and put it all in play. Malinga (According To) is his natural wine side biz. Vogel und Meer translates as Bird and Sea.
