Winery Seebrich GbR

Our winery was founded in Nierstein in 1783 and has been family owned ever since. Knowledge, care and the learned craft, as well as dedication and passion have since shaped our family. Our top priority is to focus on the essentials: "To produce hig-quality wines from high-quality grapes, by consciously dealing with nature." The focus is always on the desire to preserve all the ingredients that a grape develops. This care and the experience over decades are reflected in the quality of the wines. Already in the vineyard, we lay the foundation for our quality philosophy.

Jochen Seebrich: Quality is attention to detail!

English speaking visitors are welcome.

Niersteiner Hipping

Niersteiner Hipping

Tool, hill, goat? Nowadays a premium vineyard

The name of the vineyard is documented in a deed from 1753, as the vineyard property of various Nierstein vineyards. The origin of the name has not been definitively clarified. It could have come from Middle High German and once meant "hügell" (hill). Or it goes back to "Hippe", which means tool - or another version - goat. Did bleating goats once jump over the hill here? Who knows. Today, no goats bleat there any more - and the winegrowers have nothing to complain about either. This single vineyard site is of special value. World-class Rieslings thrive on the special red claystone called Rotliegenden. The "Alexander-von-Humboldt-Blick" is a viewing point located in the middle of the single vineyard site. In 1790, the naturalists Georg Forster and Alexander von Humboldt travelled by carriage from Mainz to Nierstein and reported on the red rock and the noble wine.

Niersteiner Ölberg

Niersteiner Ölberg (Oil mountain of Nierstein)

Biblical reference, oil mill or oily Rieslings?

Is the single vineyard named “Ölberg” because an oil mill once stood here? Or did the Ölberg get its name because of the oily consistency of the wines produced here? Does the site maybe have biblical references, named after a monastery? Anything is possible. The single vineyard is part of the "Roter Hang" but turns away from the river Rhein and faces south-southeast, situated above Nierstein. Partly very steep with a gradient of up to 60 percent. Like it is tpical for Roter Hang, the soil here is Rotliegendes, the iron oxide-containing, and landscape-defining red shining clay slate. The dominant grape variety is Riesling. In the middle of the vineyard: the Wartturm, a Nierstein landmark. Once a medieval signal tower from the 12th century.

Niersteiner Schloß Schwabsburg

Niersteiner Schloss Schwabsburg (Schwabsburg Castle in Nierstein)

Old castle walls and Riesling

Where once was a castle, today only the castle tower is left. It is not known who built the castle. Historians estimate that it was built between 1125 and 1245 during the Staufer period. Hikers can picnic on the lawn in front of the ruins. The single vineyard is named after the former castle. A variety of grape varieties grow on loess and red sandstone, mainly Riesling. The wines are dense with intense aromas.

Niersteiner Kranzberg

Niersteiner Kranzberg

Allow me to introduce myself: Mrs. and Mr. Craus or Kranz!

The site was first mentioned in 1418 with the name "off dem Crausberge". It is assumed that the name of the single vineyard refers to a personal name. The Kranzberg is the cone in front of the village to the north. St. Kilian's Church is enthroned in a prominent position. The site is mostly on the flatter slopes of the "Roter Hang"(red slope), i.e. it is not very steep. On loess loam, lime and sandy, clayey loam, mainly Rieslings grow – typical for "Roter Hang".
