Sustainability and Quality as Philosophy

At J. Trautwein, nature is at the center. The winery relies on environmentally friendly viticulture with the following principles:

• Renunciation of herbicides and mineral fertilizers
• Careful canopy management and yield regulation for the best grape quality
• Minimal intervention in the cellar to preserve the natural character of the wines

The Growing Region Rheinhessen – Perfect Conditions for Excellent Wine

Rheinhessen, the largest German wine-growing region, offers ideal conditions for high-quality viticulture with its gentle hills, chalky soils, and mild climate. Lonsheim is located in the southern center of the region and provides optimal conditions for characterful wines.

Grape Varieties & Soils

The diversity of the grape varieties grown reflects the high quality awareness:

• Riesling
• Chardonnay
• Pinot Noir (Spätburgunder)
• Sauvignon Blanc

The vines grow on limestone and clay marl soils, which give the wines minerality and finesse.
