Winery Deutzerhof
The Deutzerhof winery from Mayschoss on the Ahr aims to give its customers pleasure when savouring its wines. With a small, dedicated team, it produces wines that are characterised by elegance and finesse paired with beautiful fruity notes and the fine minerality of the Ahr soils.
The VDP Deutzerhof vineyard (since 1994) comprises 6.5 hectares of vineyards in small, partly steeply terraced plots. The main focus of the vineyards is Pinot Noir, which accounts for 65% of the wines produced at Deutzerhof. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay each account for 11%, Riesling 9% and Dornfelder and Regent 2% each. The vineyards are spread over 25 kilometres from Altenahr to Heimersheim with an altitude difference of 125 metres. With its six Grosse Gewächse wines, the Deutzerhof winery places particular emphasis on emphasising the style of each site. The variety of sites reflects the soul of the winery with the signature of the Deutzerhof team.
“Our Deutzerhof winery on the outskirts of Mayschoss is surrounded by the vineyards of the Mönchberg like an amphitheatre. With our sustainable vineyard and cellar work, we want to make an important contribution to the preservation of these unique terraced areas of the Ahr. With the professional support of FAIR’N GREEN, we will constantly improve the ongoing process of sustainability. The journey is the reward.”

Philosophy
Viticulture on the Ahr, with its sometimes extremely steep slopes, has a very long tradition and was already practised in Roman times. The Deutzerhof winery in Mayschoss on the Ahr is located in the middle of the Mönchberg vineyards and was first mentioned as a winery in 1574.
The love for the vines in the exceptional locations has characterised the winery over the centuries. Here they are convinced that the quality of the wines is created in the vineyard and everyone plays their part by giving nature its space and the wine the time it needs.
Year after year, the Deutzerhof winery strives to produce wonderful wines full of character from healthy grapes, always in harmony with nature. A small team cultivates the vines with great dedication and a lot of manual labour and takes appropriate measures to respond to the respective climatic conditions in the vineyard. Experience and a sense of tradition, combined with specialised knowledge and a pronounced love of wine, form the basis for the high-quality, authentic wines from Deutzerhof.
The Deutzerhof winery attaches great importance to the natural cultivation of its vineyards. Therefore, everything in the vineyard should be as natural as possible. A planting of grasses and herbs in the rows regulates the water balance and promotes humus formation. Two short arched vines are pruned, cut back several times and selected several times before the actual harvest. Only healthy grapes should be used for wine production. The grapes are harvested when they are ripe and have reached a healthy sugar/acid ratio.
