Altstadt von Bacharach und der Rhein

Welcome to
Bacharach

Every great wine is characterized by its origin.

The soil on which the vines grow and thrive is decisive for the character of the wine. We have found these perfect conditions for ourselves and our wines in Bacharach.

With our family winery, we are passionately committed to growing dry Rieslings of the highest quality. We do not aim to satisfy everyone but to pass on our fascination for Riesling.

Our
Wines

Riesling, dry, delicate, elegant.

These are the attributes we are striving for. The focus is on a clearly recognizable signature in taste, which is precisely reflected in the form of fruit, balance and especially freshness.

Due to the Mediterranean-style climate in Bacharach and the barren slate soil, our wines are extremely lean and integrate the acidity harmoniously. Our wines have a tight acid structure and a character typical of the terroir. They are characterized by good suitability for storage and longevity. They only go on sale after 2 years of bottle maturation.

For Riesling enthusiasts, an almost forgotten gem of German wine-growing culture.

Family-run, our winery is located in the middle of the small wine-growing region of the Middle Rhine. With a share of 90%, we mainly cultivate Riesling vineyards here.
