Jordan-Jordan

Former name of the Van Volxem winery; see there.

The winery is located in the municipality of Wiltingen in the German Moselle wine-growing region and is one of the oldest wineries on the Saar. It dates back to a Roman villa complex, fragments of which are still visible on the site today. In 1743, a monastery winery of the Luxembourg Jesuit College was built on the foundations. Following the French Revolution, the estate was secularised and eventually became the property of Gustav van Volxem, a brewer who had immigrated from Brussels. It was subsequently run by the Van Volxem family for four generations. In 1993, Peter Jordan took over the business and ran it under the name Jordan & Jordan. At the end of 1999, the estate was bought by Roman Niewodniczanski (scion of the Bitburger dynasty) and revitalised under its old name. He had previously studied economic geography and business administration. Major investments were made in vineyards with additional plots, buildings and cellars.
