Built in 1800 by the Duke of Westphalia on the foundations of a 1200 castle, today Schloss-Reinhartshausen is made up of 15 different vineyards planted both on the banks of the Rhine river and on the small island of Mariannenaue. The company today represents the largest privately managed property in the entire Rheingau where centuries of experience and tradition are combined with the use of the most modern winemaking techniques. The wines available offer a perfect snapshot of the Rheingau's potential: from winemaking through the classic Sekt method, a brut made from only riesling grapes, through the kabinett and two trocken rieslings. A historic company but in step with the times, a perfect icon of the Rheingau.
