The traditional winery, which has been run by the same generation for many decades, is located in the municipality of Hochheim on Frankfurter Straße in the German wine-growing region of Rheingau. It was rebuilt in 1965 at its current location and equipped according to the latest technical and business management findings. In addition to winegrowing, a newly built "country house" with a vinotheque was put into operation in 2002. Here, company events, gourmet weeks, cabaret and comedy performances, as well as musical and literary wine tastings are organised. Today, the farm is run by Pia Rosenkranz, the third generation of the family to do so.

The vineyards cover nine hectares of vineyards in the single vineyard sites Hofmeister, Hölle, Kirchenstück, Reichestal and Stein (Hochheim) on south-south-western slopes with predominantly chalky subsoils. They are planted with the white wine varieties Riesling (85%), Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Roter Riesling, as well as with the red wine variety Pinot Noir. Sustainable cultivation with a high ecological spread, for example through species-rich cover crop. Only physiologically ripe and healthy grapes are processed through selective manual harvesting.
