(Featured in our Summer Reds collection) Martin Obenaus @martinobenaus (the M.O. in Mo:Rot) is a young man with eyes trained squarely on his soils, where he sees the future of his village. A self-proclaimed “dirt farmer,” it’s Martin’s belief that every investment he makes in the health of his soils, through the careful brewing of compost tea, the cultivation of cover crops, amid myriad other investments, will reward not just himself, but the coming generations. He’s installed insect hotels throughout his vineyards, along with benches at the scenic places, where locals can come and enjoy some of the best views in the Weinvertal.
