Scheu Klaus

Producer description of "Weinhof Scheu"

The winery is located in the municipality of Schweigen-Rechtenbach (Südliche Weinstraße area) in the German wine-growing region of It was founded in 1964 by Friedel and Günter Scheu, initially as a mixed farm and vine-growing business with less than one hectare of vineyards at the time. Since 2009, it has been run by Klaus Scheu. In summer 2015, the construction of a new vinotheque was completed. The modern building is used for events as well as tastings. The vineyards cover 14 hectares of vineyards in the single vineyard Schweigener . The varieties Riesling (about one third), Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Scheurebe and Gewürztraminer are cultivated with a planting density of about 6,000 vines per hectare. The majority of the area is located on French territory in Alsace in the sub-areas of Raedling and Strohlenberg, which earned the owner the name "The Border Crosser", but this is also meant to refer to the style and vinification of the wines.
