The Christmann winery is an indispensable part of Germany's top winegrowers. Steffen Christmann can count himself blessed, with his Daughter Sophie to have such a talented and experienced winemaker at his side as his successor. Also exciting is the exchange with the Grandfather Fritzwho is still active at the age of 90. The seventh, eighth and ninth generations of winemakers are united by the pursuit of the highest quality and perfection.
