About us
The Lanius-Knab winery has been family-owned for 250 years. Since 1991, the business has constantly been raised and expanded by Jörg Lanius. In 1992, the establishment moved into an art nouveau villa with a two-floored vaulted cellar; step by step, more vineyards were bought. In that way, the business went from a sideline of a 2-hectare cultivation area to a full-time winery that cultivates 12 hectares of the steepest vinicultural area. Since 1995, we have been part of the VDP (the Association of German Prädikat Wine Estates, abbreviated VDP). Our wine grows in the VDP-classified vineyard locations Engehöller Bernstein and Engehöller Goldemund as well as the Oberweseler Oelsberg, locations which were already supreme-classified in the Prussian vineyard classification of 1801. Low yields, eco-minded cultivation and selective hand-picking are the recipe for maintaining natural uniqueness and authenticity. The grapes are handed gently into the wine cellar, with the most critical step being slow fermentation for its maturity.
