Locally influenced - internationally inspired My roots grow deep in Bermersheim, Rheinhessen. This is where it all began. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, and it wasn’t until I was far away that I realized where my journey as a winemaker would ultimately lead. I am Christian Peth - making wines because it’s what I love to do. This is my wife, Maja. We both love exploring the world. I left home to find my own distinctive voice - in my life and in my wines. I traveled to many countries around the globe. Immersing myself in...
