About us
The legendary Karthäuserhof estate is a place of fairy tales. Overlooking the sublime Ruwer valley, we are the eighth oldest winegrowing estate in the world*. Officially founded as a monastery in 1335, this “Farm of the Carthusians” was given as a gift to the monks of the Carthusian order by Prince-Elector Balduin of Luxembourg. Incredibly, the Karthäuserhof has now been owned by seven generations of our family since 1811.
Standing out among the finest sites in all of Germany, our monopole vineyard is renowned for its exceptional quality. The vineyards of the Karthäuserhofberg estate, held exclusively by our family, are a truly precious resource.
In 1868, the Royal Prussian government commissioned a survey of vineyards in the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer region and, even then, “Eitelsbacher Karthäuserhofberg” received the highest possible classification.
