The winery is located in the municipality of Neustadt-Gimmeldingen (Mittelhaardt-Deutsche Weinstraße area) in the German wine-growing region of Pfalz. The Christmann family has been dedicated to viticulture and preserving the terroir for eight generations. Today, Steffen and Sophie Christmann are the seventh and eighth generations to run the business.

The vineyards cover 20 hectares of vines. Since the downsizing of the winery in 2021, all vineyards have been classified as VDP.ERSTE LAGE® or VDP.GROSSE LAGE®. There are vineyards in the single vineyard sites Biengarten, Kapellenberg, Meerspinne ( Mandelgartenvineyard ) and Schlössel (Gimmeldingen), Eselshaut (Mußbach), Idig and Ölberg (Königsbach), Vogelsang (Neustadt), as well as Linsenbusch, Nußbien, Reiterpfad and Spieß (Ruppertsberg). Around two thirds of the vineyards are planted with Riesling, as well as Pinot Noir and Pinot Blanc.

The 2004 vintage saw a complete switch to biodynamic viticulture after a long period of organic farming. As far as possible, the work is orientated to the phases of the moon. Plant protection is carried out using plant teas and biodynamic preparations, completely avoiding herbicides and insecticides. The nitrogen supply is supported by legumes (clover). Only healthy and physiologically ripe grapes are processed through selective harvesting exclusively by hand.
The wines are marketed according to the VDP classification model. All cellar work is carried out according to the non-invasive principle (as much as necessary, as little as possible). The wines are fermented spontaneously with the vineyard's own yeasts and remain on the fine lees for a long time. The white wines are mainly matured in large wooden barrels. Gentle filtration and no fining preserve the typical character of the vineyards. The Pinot Noirs are matured in French barriques after traditional mash fermentation with whole grape content. The winery is a member of the VDP, as well as respekt-BIODYN and La Renaissance des Appellations.
