The Steinig Tisch winery has been run by the third generation, Roman Rutishauser, since 2015. It was founded by August Rutishauser in 1970 and professionalized and further developed by Christoph Rutishauser from 1981. The Swiss winery is idyllically situated to the east of upper Lake Constance on the ridge of the Buechberg between the municipalities of Rorschach and Rheineck. In the mild climate, eight different grapes thrive here on extremely steep slopes on poor, clayey soil, which make up the character of the winery. For several years now, fungus-resistant wines – Piwis for short – have been cultivated at Steinig Tisch. This future-oriented approach is reflected in the estate’s motto: traditional, innovative and close to nature.
Our incentive? To cultivate honest values and honest wines. In harmony with nature for 3 generations. Tradition complemented by innovation, accompanied and sustainably developed with FAIR’N GREEN.”

Roman Rutishauser produces top-quality wines through careful and sustainable cultivation methods. To preserve and promote biodiversity, peaches, almonds, roses, olives and figs grow in the vineyards. A dry stone wall around one kilometer long and other structures such as heaps of branches or flower mixtures provide additional habitats for biodiversity. In late fall and winter, sheep can even be seen in the vineyards, which are used as “mowers” for gentle mowing.
