Schloss Vollrads

The castle consists of a 14th-century tower house, two prominent wings built in 1684, and an octagonal stage tower from 1471 along a square pond.

The estate dates back to 1218 when knight Vollradus established the property, which later passed to the Greiffenclau family who expanded the castle complex.

The wine estate produces exclusively Riesling wines, continuing an 800-year tradition of viticulture that began during the medieval period in Rheingau.

Visitors can access guided tours, wine tastings, and seasonal events at the estate, which maintains regular opening hours from Tuesday through Saturday.

The estate holds a special designation allowing its wines to be labeled simply as 'Schloss Vollrads Riesling' without requiring a village name specification.
