Weingut Knobloch

The enthusiasm of the winemaker is present in every bottle of wine. Philosophy Those who want to be good must become better. This guiding principle accompanies the work at the Knobloch winery. Nothing is left to chance here: The grapes - aromatic fruits with subtle, delicate acidity and sparkling freshness - are transformed into a true taste experience. For this, the Knobloch family has been providing patience, much feeling, and openness to the modern for 300 years. One can also find this in the modern ambiance of the winery: the vinothek, the enchanting garden, and the small, fine country hotel. A tip: The hearty breakfast buffet with fresh regional products can also be enjoyed by guests who do not stay in the country hotel. Special Features For all those who bring time: The Knobloch family offers an unforgettable day program with a sparkling wine reception followed by a wagon ride into the vineyards. There, delicious homemade cake and coffee await. Back at the winery, the day ends in the vinothek with a wine tasting and Rheinhessen specialties.

Dorn-Dürkheimer Hasensprung

Dorn-Dürkheimer Hasensprung

Of prehistoric horses, saber-toothed tigers and hares 

The hare gave its name to the single location. Moreover, the Middle High German word "spring/sprung", which has nothing to do with hopping, but means "spring". Hare, deer, fox, badger certainly roam the area between the three villages Dorn-Dürkheim, Wintersheim and Hillesheim. And yet there were once quite wondrous animals here: prehistoric horses, rhinoceroses or saber-toothed tigers. The found remains of 80 vertebrate species are about 8.5 million years old and thus belong to the age of the "Turolium". There is no more significant fossil site of this phase in all of Europe! A local artist donated to the community, among other things, a three-meter-high marble evolutionary column, which can be visited at any time. A wide variety of vines thrive on loess.
