About Winery and Wines
The vineyard reaches from the foot of the Merkur Mountains-313 meters (1027 feet) above sea level-south-southeast into the Murg Valley.: The Staufenberger Grossenberg. Rich, healthy grapes result from a biologically intact environment so we maintain a variety of native plants and animals which thrive in our vineyard, enhancing the cultivation of our grapevines. Our grapevines are nourished with all natural fertilizers and minerals: No synthetic chemicals are used. Our goal is to work economically in harmony with nature. We gladly comply with stringent guidelines provided by the European Common Market Standard for Ecological Agriculture.
Only two percent of European wines are organically produced. The wines of Staufenberger Grossenberg are proudly counted in this elite group. Fully ripened grapes-organically grown are the basis for our wines. The grapes are carefully hand-picked and delivered to our wine cellar at harvest time.
Old Town Hall Gernsbach
The 'Altes Rathaus', the Old Town Hall, was erected in 1618 in a Renaissance style on the marketplace in the old town of Gernsbach. Today, serving as the central seat of our business, its ground floor harbors the shop where we present our wines.
The Old Town Hall's historical cellar with its cross-vaulted ceiling creates a one-of-a-kind ambiance, ideal not only for intimate and unique wine tastings but also for festivities and cultural events of almost any kind.
Here you will be allowed to taste, enjoy, and select the wine best suitable to your preference, comfortably distanced from rush and bother.
The ripe and healthy white wine grapes, from organic cultivation, are pressed as whole grapes. The red wine is produced with mash fermentation. The light, fruity wines are fermented and stored in steel tanks without being influenced in taste by wood and oxidation.
The red wine is stored in wooden barrels from 13% vol. Now it is shaped micro-oxidatively and microbiologically by the oak barrel. Here we produce red wines of the classic kind, with a vintage character that we cultivate. We do not add anything, we do not take anything away, we want to vinify what nature gives us in the best possible way into a wine that is pure in terms of variety, location and vintage. Depending on the weather conditions, each vintage has its own acidity, sugar and alcohol content. This results in wines with very different characters. You can get to know this wonderful variety during a wine tasting.
