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 family for four generations.

In 1993, the business was taken over by Peter Jordan and run 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 the old name. He had previously studied economic geography and business administration. Major investments were made in the vineyards with additional plots, as well as in the remodelling of the buildings and cellar facilities. Since 2022, cellar master Christoph Friedrich and estate manager Lukas Becker have been responsible for the business. The winery has been a member of the VDP (Verband Deutscher Prädikatsweingüter) and Fair'n Green since 2007.
