The Thörle Estate dates back to the 16th century. Since 2006 the fortunes of the wine estate have been in the hands of the next generation in the form of Johannes and Christoph Thörle, who manage the winery with innovative skill and farm their vineyards organically.

The Thörle brothers obtain their distinctive, mineral Riesling and delicate Pinot Noir from the characteristically calcareous limestone-soils of Saulheim’s single vineyards Hölle, Schlossberg and Probstey.

In recent years, the brothers gained a great deal of praise and accolades for their individual approach to vinification and pressing techniques.

In order to ensure the maximum extraction from the grapes, the Thörle apply mash retention times to white grapes and use natural yeast for the fermentation process.

The resulting wines are full of character – they possess a depth of flavor and boast a high potential for maturing.

Today, the Thörle estate ranks among the best producers in Germany.
