Karthäuserhof
In the Ruwer valley near Trier-Eitelsbach, where a cool tributary climate sharpens every slope, one estate stands apart: at Weingut Karthäuserhof (Ruwer/Mosel) the monopoly vineyard Karthäuserhofberg is the entire heartbeat. Founded in 1335 by Carthusian monks and later passing into private hands after secularisation, the site was classified in 1868 by the Prussian vineyard survey among the very best.
Devonian slate, a south‑west exposure and elevations rising above 250 metres lock in freshness and mineral tension; here Riesling is less a grape than a dialect. Vineyard work is exacting, and cellar decisions aim for clarity and length rather than overt aromatics. Recognised today as a VDP.GROSSE LAGE® and family-owned for more than 200 years, Karthäuserhof is an icon of the Mosel—terroir distilled into tradition.Karthäuserhof
