Weingut Fritz Haag, Historic wine estate in Brauneberg, Germany
Weingut Fritz Haag is a wine estate in Brauneberg along the Mosel River, comprising 18.5 hectares of vineyards across steep slopes with slate-rich soils. The terraced landscape focuses on Riesling production and displays the typical steep-slope structure of the wine region.
The estate was founded in 1605 and carries the name of its village, Brauneberg, which was renamed from Dusemond in 1925 to emphasize wine production. This name change marked a turning point when the region decided to highlight its identity as a wine area.
The Juffer vineyard name comes from 1790, when three unmarried daughters of the owner managed the property - 'Juffer' means maiden in local dialect. This story shapes how visitors experience the vineyard today when they walk through the terraced slopes.
Visitors can reach the estate at Dusemonder Strasse 44 and arrange guided tours and wine tastings. A selection of around 50 different wines is available for tasting throughout the year.
The Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr vineyard gets its name from a sundial marking on the slopes and produces wines with distinctive mineral character due to its specific position. The Rieslings from this site are known for their aging potential and ability to maintain acidity and complexity over many years.
