In memoriam

Annegret Reh-Gartner

When Günther Reh bought our winery in 1978, his daughter Annegret Reh-Gartner developed a passion for wine and decided to enter the as yet still male-dominated winemaking profession. Reh-Gartner would go on to guide the fortunes of our venerable estate expertly and tirelessly for three decades from 1983 to 2016. Her total commitment to quality, and her worldwide connections, helped to earn us the reputation that we enjoy today.

We also owe much to her decision to downsize the estate to 50 hectares, which allowed us to significantly improve sorting in the vineyard as well as post-harvest grape handling.

Reh-Gartner was especially conscious of her role in promoting German Riesling abroad, and of the well-being of her staff. As such, we feel obliged and driven to continue the legacy she left us when she passed away in 2016.
