Schloss Johannisberg

The Cradle of German Riesling Excellence

For more than 900 years, Schloss Johannisberg has played a pivotal role in the history of German Riesling from its renowned Rheingau estate. As the first vineyard in the world dedicated solely to Riesling (established in 1720) and the origin of Spätlese winemaking, this VDP.Grosse Lage® estate produces benchmark wines that exemplify terroir expression.

The estate's winemaking approach integrates biodynamic viticulture with meticulous fermentation in stainless steel and large oak barrels, encapsulating the essence of their UNESCO-protected slopes.

What sets Schloss Johannisberg apart is its flawless blend of tradition and innovation. The 2021 vintage signifies their 300th consecutive harvest - a truly remarkable legacy. Their wines consistently achieve high ratings and exhibit exceptional aging potential, with dry varieties maturing beautifully for over 15 years and sweet selections enduring for half a century.

For both collectors and enthusiasts, these limited-production wines (many with fewer than 500 cases) epitomize the zenith of German winemaking. Discover Riesling in its most authentic, historic form with these cellar-worthy masterpieces from the estate that pioneered the category.
