The Haart family winery practices sustainable viticulture on its 8-hectare vineyard on the Moselle, which dates back to 1337. The Reinhold Haart winery is currently owned by Theo, Edith and Johannes Haart. The steep slopes of Goldtröpfchen, Grafenberg, Kreuzwingert and Ohligsberg, which are cultivated by the Reinhold Haart estate in a natural way, produce a Riesling that has won several awards. The vineyard’s soils are slate. A large proportion of the VDP winegrower’s production is exported.
“Responsible handling of wine as a cultural product has been part of our family’s program for generations. FAIR’N GREEN helps us to understand the context of our work in order to be fit for the modern market today and tomorrow.”

The vineyards of Weingut Haart have been cultivated with great care for centuries. The family business has always been committed to the responsible use of wine as a cultural product. For this reason, natural cultivation, the protection of biodiversity, the promotion of beneficial insects and integrated plant protection are at the heart of the company’s management.
The winery’s primary goal is to produce wines of the highest quality and independence. This is to be achieved by treating the environment with respect.
The conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity is an important basis here. Manual work makes it possible to work each vine individually, to select the grapes optimally during the harvest and thus to guarantee healthy grapes. Just as important as the preparatory work in the vineyard is careful vinification. Only through gentle treatment can the full potential of extracts, fruit aromas and mineral components be preserved.
Additives and aids are taboo, mechanical stresses are kept to a minimum and essential movements are coordinated with the phases of the moon. Respekt – this is a group of biodynamic winegrowers for whom this work is both a requirement and an obligation. The winery is delighted to have been a member since 2015.
