Thomas H. Althoff took over the Schloss Ortenberg winery in 2021. The harmonious interplay of human, nature and tradition forms the basis for the top wines that the winery produces. This is also reflected in the awards it has received since then.
Ortenberg Castle towers majestically over the vineyards on a terroir formed over millions of years. The granite soils lend the vines a mineral depth, while the warm influence of the Rhine Valley gives them a special ripeness. At the same time, the cool winds from the Black Forest ensure an ideal balance.
