Appenheimer Hundertgulden

Wines and estates are spectacular. The castle ensemble (16th/17th century) towers stately over Ingelheim. In 1900, the von Opel family acquired the estate. Today, the VDP winery is run by Count and Countess Schönburg-Glauchau in the fourth generation. It benefits from an outstanding stock of vines in the Schloss Westerhaus monopollage and other sites in the Selz Valley.

Wine tastings are available by appointment for up to 50 people.

The winery is located directly on the premium hiking trail "Hiwweltour Westerberg".

Paddocks and stables reveal that Schloss Westerhaus is not only a winery, but also a stud farm that breeds racehorses. When the large wooden gate of the castle is open, the vinotheque is open and you can taste a glass of wine made from the vines that grow along the Hiwweltour Westerberg.

Hike on the Hiwweltour Bismarck tower in the nature reserve Gau-Algesheimer Kopf, through the Welzbachtal valley to the famous Hundertgulden vineyard. On the way, the entertaining change of forest passages, hedgerowed paths and open spaces, with innumerable panoramic views of the Rhine and the Rheingau, captivates. With Ingelheim, Gau-Algesheim and Appenheim, there are three entry points, which are worth a visit with their historic city centers and the range of restaurants.

The fruit route describes a large round through the orchard of Rheinhessen with its numerous orchards, vegetable fields and vintners. The route consists of a western and eastern loop of 30 km each, connected by a 7 km long common route in Selztal.
