The winery is located in the municipality of Östringen-Tiefenbach (Kraichgau area) in the German wine-growing region of Baden. It was founded in 1960 by Albert Heitlinger. Today it is owned by the "Weingüter Heitlinger & Burg Ravensburg GmbH" with Heinz Heiler as the owner. The Burg Ravensburg wine estate in Sulzfeld was acquired in 2010, but continues to exist with equal rights. The two wineries are completely separate in terms of wine law, but are run jointly. They are only ten kilometres apart, and all wines are vinified in the winery in Tiefenbach, which was newly built in 2012. Dipl.-Weinbaubetriebswirt Claus Burmeister is responsible as managing director for both wineries. Daniel Rupp is responsible for the cellar technology. The Heitlinger winery is considered a Burgundy specialist.
