We promise you this in every bottle

Our wines come from the Ruwer Valley, a side valley of the Moselle, characterized by slate soils and a unique cool microclimate. We carefully pick and select our grapes by hand and work with only the best grapes to minimize yields. Our vineyards are cultivated according to biodynamic principles and the wines are produced in a purist manner. Sustainability, a sense of responsibility and fair cooperation are our top priorities.

Eitelsbacher Riesling Alte Reben 2021

50-year-old vines for eternity

The nose of Eitelsbacher Alte Reben 2021 is initially dominated by lemon and lime. There are also typical notes of herbs and fennel. In the mouth, the animating acidity creates a tension. The wine is incredibly crisp and yet has a pleasant, almost rich melt from the long aging on the full yeast. The finish is characterized by the freshness of the Ruwer Valley and the peppery spiciness of the slate.

Eitelsbacher Riesling Alte Reben 2021

In the words of the technical director

2021 Alte Reben shows the spiciness and herbal aromas that are so typical of the rather cool vintage. The freshness of this wine also shows its longevity.

Eitelsbacher Riesling Alte Reben 2021

food recommendation in detail

veal sweetbreads, halibut

The invigorating freshness and velvety mouthfeel harmonize perfectly with the sweetness of seafood such as lobster. However, the creamy texture and delicate smoky notes mean that the wine also harmonizes perfectly with fried chicken in creamy sauces or seasonal specialties such as fried chanterelles.

Karthäuserhof Etikett Eitelsbach

trademark

A globally unique trademark

The Eitelsbach stream runs through the garden in front of our main house, where Willhelm and Kathinka Rautenstrauch spent cool breaks in hot summers in the 19th century. To cool the Karthäuserhof wines, they put the bottles in the cold stream. But the labels came off and floated away. This is how Wilhelm Rautenstrauch invented our unmistakable neck label and a trademark that is unique worldwide.

Karthäuserhof Weinberg

vineyards of immeasurable value

Das macht
den Karthäuserhofberg so legendär

Our monopol vineyard, the Karthäuserhofberg, is considered one of the most traditional and fascinating vineyards in Germany. The steep southwest slope of the Karthäuserhofberg in the Ruwer Valley ensures optimal sunlight and a special microclimate. The mineral-rich slate soil gives the wines an unmistakable finesse and elegance that reflects the terroir of the Karthäuserhofberg. Wine has been grown here for over 1000 years. This long history and the accumulated knowledge shape every wine that is produced here. The combination of these two grape varieties in the special location in particular ensures wines of great complexity, freshness and longevity.
