About Weingut Braunewell

The winery is located in the municipality of Essenheim ( Nierstein area) in the German wine-growing region of Rheinhessen. The family has been growing wine here for around 350 years. As a result of the persecution of the Huguenots, François Breiniville immigrated from Villepot-Loraine in France to Rheinhessen in 1655 and founded a farm and wine-growing business. Today, four generations live on the estate. These are the senior managers Adam Braunewell and Axel with his wife Ursula (vineyards), as well as their sons Christian (cellar technology) and Stefan (tastings).

Vineyards & grape varieties

The vineyards cover 28 hectares of vines in the single vineyard sites Teufelspfad (Essenheim) and Blume (Elsheim). They are planted with the white wine varieties Pinot Gris and Riesling (30% each), Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, as well as the red wine varieties Pinot Noir (20%), St. Laurent, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. The winery is a member of Fair'n Green and is managed according to environmentally friendly, ecological principles with the aim of sustainability. These include cover crop to support biodiversity, the use of alternative pesticides, rainwater harvesting and the production of solar power.

Product range

The product range is divided into estate wines, local wines and single vineyards (with François and Réserve lines). The white single vineyards wines are fermented spontaneously. Some of the red wines are bottled without filtration. Depending on the type of wine, the wines are matured in stainless steel, in large wooden barrels(piece, half-piece) or in barriques. In years with suitable weather conditions, Beerenauslese and Trockenbeerenauslese wines are also produced. Bottle-fermented sparkling wines and Secco (semi-sparkling wines) are also produced. Around 200,000 bottles of wine are produced each year. The winery is a member of the winegrowers' associations Selection Rheinhessen and Generation Riesling.
