Winery K. & K. Dautermann
The Dautermann winery is one of the places to go in Ingelheim. Ambitiously Kurt and Kristian Dautermann - who now also belong to the elite squad of the "Deutsche Weinelf" (National German winemaker's football club) - bring forward the family winery. With 65 percent red wine, the red wine specialists have increased their popularity especially with their extraordinary Pinot Noirs recently. But even with the traditional white wines - whether Riesling, Silvaner or Pinot Gris - this winery has a great assortment to offer. The self-image is as simple as it is demanding: "... 80% of the quality is given to us by nature. For the remaining 20% we work in the vineyards intensely ". Highly recommended is the small, but fine cultural program, the Dautermann family puts together for their guests. To be found at www.dautermannwein.de . A major change happened in one of the most popular Ingelheim red wine vineyard. Winemaker Heinz Niedecken, owner of the winery Kirchenstück, decided to quit for reasons of age and gave the heart of the vineyard, which also named his own estate founded back in 1850, to the K & K Dautermann winery. Thus, the Dautermann winery is looking forward to a successful future with the legendary vineyard Kirchstück.
