Johannisberg Castle is a castle complex with a winery and its vineyards.

This is located in the Geisenheim area in the beautiful Rheingau.

Around 1100: Founded as a Benedictine monastery.

1716: After destruction during the Thirty Years' War, the Prince-Bishop of Mainz purchased the ruins and had the baroque Johannisberg Palace built on the same site.

Owners included the Prince-Abbots of Fulda and later the Prince of Metternich.

Famous for the origin of the Spätlese (late harvest): In 1775, a delayed harvest was permitted for the first time → discovery of noble rot (Botrytis) → one of the most important moments in winemaking history!

One of the oldest Riesling wineries in the world.

Approximately 50 hectares of vineyards, exclusively Riesling.

Specialty: high-quality Prädikat wines (Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese, and Eiswein).

Many vintages are among the top wines of the Rheingau.
