Winery Paulinshof

Paulinshof - Riesling passion from the best slate steep locations. Eleven hundred years of wine culture - the former St. Paulin monastery estate and today family-run Riesling winery Paulinshof is located in the holiday resort of Kesten.

We live and work in one of the most traditional wineries in the oldest wine region of Germany. The Paulinshof has a long tradition that dates back at least to the early Middle Ages. At that time, the vineyard was managed as a monastery estate of the Church of St. Paulin in Trier. An old document from 936 notes a return of vineyards by King Heinrich. After the occupation of the left bank of the Rhine by the French in 1794, the St. Paulin Monastery estate was secularized and transferred to private hands. Even today, we vinify wines from the best steep slopes of the Middle Moselle: Brauneberger Juffer, Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr, Brauneberger Kammer *Lage in sole ownership*, Kestener Paulinshofberg.
We stand for traditional wine production from the valuable slate vineyards that have always been cultivated by hand. From the management of the vineyards to the careful, selective manual harvest and gentle processing of the grapes, to the natural aging and only cautious use of traditional and modern techniques, wines with intense aroma and elegant finesse unfold with patience and time.

We are convinced that the fascination of such wines is only developed through the interaction of the exceptionally formed slate slopes created over millions of years, the unique and expressive grape variety Riesling, and the elaborate manual labor in the vineyard and cellar. Long-lasting and sustainable wines - for endless joy in enjoyment.
