The winery in the municipality of Rüdesheim in the German wine-growing region of Rheingau was founded in 1880 by Bernhard Scholl and Albert Hillebrand as part of a wine shop. At the beginning of the 20th century, it was taken over by Peter Breuer and further expanded by his son Georg. The brothers Bernhard and Heinrich Breuer then took over the management in the third generation. Bernhard Breuer (1946-2004) was regarded as one of the most innovative German winegrowers, meticulously endeavouring to develop a dry Riesling and advocating the close link between wine and culture. In 1984, he founded the Charta Rheingau, which then merged into the VDP Rheingau in 1999. Today, the winery is managed by Theresa Breuer, assisted by field manager Florian Moll and cellar master Joel Welander.

I have great respect for the scope and quality of the wein.plus encyclopaedia. It is a unique place to go for crisp, sound information on terms from the world of wine.
