The winery is located in the municipality of Gönnheim (Mittelhaardt-Deutsche Weinstraße area) in the German wine-growing region of Pfalz on the so-called Hochterassen of the Rhine. The family business is run by Rainer, Ingeborg and Vincent Eymann. The vineyards cover 15 hectares in the Mandelgarten and Sonnenberg (Gönnheim) vineyards. The most important grape varieties are Riesling and Pinot Noir, followed by Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris, as well as smaller portions of Silvaner, Muscat, Merlot and St. Laurent.

The winery is one of the organic pioneers, having started with organic cultivation as early as 1982 when it was taken over. Since 2006, biodynamic viticulture has been practised according to the rules of the Naturland and DEMETER associations. This includes a diverse cover crop in order to preserve the natural fertility of the soil and create a habitat for a rich fauna, careful foliage management, and gentle soil cultivation to reduce fungal diseases. During the vegetative cycle, the vines are treated with biodynamic preparations of herbs, rock meals and compost.
