Our history extends back to the year 1223, when the vineyards of Eitelsbach were first documented.

However, archaeological evidence indicates that our heritage reaches even further back. It is believed that the Romans were already cultivating wine at Karthäuserhof, continuing a long-standing tradition of winemaking on these grounds.
