Family, Home, Nature, Tradition, Great Wines

BRAUNEWELL

 

These are terms that characterize our actions and pursuit of highest quality. Created by man and nature, sheltered by thick cellar walls, we produce wines of fruity elegance from Rheinhessen origin. As a family-run and quality-oriented winery we live and work within the traditional wine-growing community of Essenheim in the Selz valley. Our greatest treasure is the potential of our Blume and Teufelspfad vineyards. A treasure that needs care and commitment to produce characterful wines with its distinctive terroir. This is guaranteed by natural vineyard management and focus on natural viticulture. Year by year, our aim is to turn these ambitions into exciting wines. We are proud of our constantly growing wine community, the vibrant wine culture and do look forward to being your host and welcoming our guests at our new winery.

365 vintages

In the confussing times of the Huguenot persecution François Breiniville came from Villepot-Loraine to Essenheim, Rheinhessen, to find a new home in 1655. Since those difficult times our family has been cultivating wine in Essenheim, in the Selz Valley close by the river Rhine and the Great Wine Capital Mainz. Today four generations live and work at the winery for excellent wines.

Behind every product stands a strong team. Hand in hand, created with great attention to detail by humans and nature, and shaped by passion, wines are born that cannot deny their craftsmanship and homeland.

TEAM

 

Craftsmanship, dedication, quality awareness and absolute passion - it is great to have such a strong team which you can feel in every single bottle of wine. There is always something going on at the winery, before, during and after the harvest, but our team is always there to help out if there are any questions.
