Vine was already grown in this region during medieval times, however at some point in the early modern era the production ceased.
In the 1950s the entrepreneur Georg Angersbach revived the wine production and laid the base for the current vineyard.
Financial difficulties and harvest loss due to harsh weather conditions led to an interruption of the production after Angersbach's death in 1979.
It rented parts of the original vineyard from the state and started to produce organic wine.
[1][2] Since then the yearly harvest varies between one and ten metric tonnes depending on weather and pest conditions, which translates to between 1,000 and 10,000 bottles of wine.
