Winery Oswald

With our winery in the Wahlheim we can look back on a long tradition. Even today we run the winery as a family business. We, that is winemaker Volker Oswald and his wife Cornelia and nephew Simon Müller-Oswald, who will take over the winery after his degree in viticulture and oenology in a few years. In total, eight hectares of own vineyard area are cultivated. 4.5 hectares of vineyards are located in a south-facing slope directly at the winery in Wahlheim. There are valuable, old vines, which are deeply rooted in the warm and fertile soil (loamy clay with lime marl). The other part of our vineyards can be found closer to the Rhine and is located in the districts of Alsheim and Gimbsheim. Here the vines are in deep, sandy clay soil with a high percentage of colluvial less. Due to its protected location, Rheinhessen is one of the warmest and driest areas in Germany. The interaction of climate, location and soil thus significantly shapes the conditions for a high quality of wine. We are grateful to be able to contribute our skills as a winemaker in this terroir, because we give the wines their unique character! We are pleased to invite you to experience our wines & sect in their variety!

English speaking visitors are welcome.

Alsheimer Fischerpfad

Alsheimer Fischerpfad (Fisherman’s path of Albig)

The smallest and possibly most idyllic single vineyard in Alsheim.

The vineyard was first mentioned in a document in 1720 under the name "im Fischerpfadt". The single vineyard is about five kilometres away from the river Rhein. Fishermen once took this route, coming from the village of Wintersheim. The single vineyard is the smallest, but possibly the most idyllic in Alsheim. It is located directly by the district of Hangen-Wahlheim - with only ten houses, old trees and the remains of an old church for Maria Magdalena. The table of wine invites you to a picnic with a panoramic view of the Rhine valley. The vineyards are characterised by deep loess soil. Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and other grape varieties grow here.

Alsheimer Goldberg

The location was mentioned in 1523 with the name "am goldtberg". The designation of a hallway with this name rarely indicates the precious metal, but rather is an expression of general appreciation.
