Pese Wein is an online wine retailer based in Hamburg, whose range is tasted and selected exclusively by trained sommeliers. We work directly with over 500 winegrowers and wineries in Germany, France, Italy, Austria, Spain and overseas. Our range extends from everyday wines under 15 euros to Premier Grand Cru Classé and Grossen Gewächs. What all wines have in common is that they have passed the tasting table of our sommeliers. Only then do they go into the shop.
Wine trade curated by sommeliers with wines directly from the winery.
In every price segment.
Everything. Except standard. The Pese wine top selection.

Bordeaux 2025 - a balancing act with a happy ending!
The fascinating thing about Bordeaux for us is always the great diversity of vintages.
Hardly any other major wine-growing region in the world offers such diversity - both between vintages and within its unique terroirs.
Read what you can expect this year.
This is how our range is created.
In four steps.
Our wine selection is deliberately not a vendor's tray. It is the result of a process that begins with the winemakers - and ends at the tasting table in Hamburg.
Direct contact with the winemaker
We sit with the winemaker. Our sommeliers travel through the wine-growing regions of Europe several times a year, visiting wineries in person and talking to cellar masters and oenologists. This creates relationships that last for years - and conditions that we pass on to you.
Tasting on site and in Hamburg
Every wine that is to be included in our range is tasted at least twice: once at the winegrower's premises in the context of its vintage, and once in Hamburg in comparison with other candidates in the same segment. Only if both tastings are convincing does the wine go through to the next round.
Valuation according to clear criteria
We do not evaluate based on gut feeling. Four dimensions decide: Terroir authenticity (does the wine taste of its origin?), quality of craftsmanship, ageing potential and value for money in the respective segment. A 12-euro Riesling is judged by the same standards of craftsmanship as a 120-euro Bordeaux - the only difference is the expectation of complexity and ageing potential.
Inclusion only by consensus
No wine is included in the range unless all the sommeliers agree. This is exhausting, but it is the reason why there is no gap-filler at Pese.

The online shop offers an exceptionally curated selection of wines. Given the sheer immeasurable variety of winemakers, grape varieties, vineyards, and vintages one could theoretically choose from on the market, I find Pese Wein's approach compelling: carefully narrowing down their offerings to a selection of highly recommended wines across all price ranges. For an interested novice, this is a truly welcome reduction. Shopping there is particularly worthwhile for those who want to regularly try new wines. I have never been disappointed by an order.

A fantastic wine selection and unparalleled service. My complaint about a leaking bottle was handled very efficiently and professionally via email within minutes, and a replacement was sent the same day. Even afterward, I received a notification that the storage area had been checked as a precaution and another leaking bottle had been discovered and disposed of to prevent the next customer from experiencing the same problem. This is how online wine buying should be! Excellent work, keep it up – you've gained a new regular customer!
