Philosophy
Our Estates
Passion and vision characterize our work in the two wine-estates, both in Oestrich-Winkel (Rheingau) as well as in Bernkastel (Mosel).
Our passion is dedicated to the arguably most amazing and most demanding white wine grape of the world, the Riesling. No other grape produces as complex and versatile wines as the Riesling. The spectrum of wines a winegrower can make from Riesling grapes goes from basic range to premium quality, from crisp and young to a hundred years old, and from seriously dry to ultimately sweet - but only if you really get into the art of making such wines.
We have a vision, that again and again makes us try out the limits of what nature permits us to do with the grapes, and sometimes even venture beyond these limits.
