The winery is located in the municipality of Deidesheim in the German wine-growing region of Pfalz. It emerged from a division of the Jordan estate. In 1849, Jordan's son-in-law Franz Peter Buhl (1809-1862) inherited a large part of the estate. His son Franz Armand Buhl (1837-1896) carried on the legacy, and under his leadership the estate achieved international fame for its Rieslings. The highest honours were won at world exhibitions (Paris) and events. At that time, Buhl wines were among the most expensive in the world. In 1869, the opening of the Suez Canal was toasted with a Buhl Riesling. The German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck (1815-1898) was a great lover of Buhl wines and made the Forster Ungeheuer vineyard world-famous with his quote "This monster tastes monstrous to me".
