Wine and champagne Menk

Anke and Werner Menk have moved into their new domicile high above the red wine town of Ingelheim. They run the young winery in accordance with the motto: "Wine - made with love." The noble wines are developed with great care and tact. The winemaking family's passion for vines and wine is reflected in the extensive range of grape varieties. From the classic and traditional grape varieties to the international and the exotic, wines are available for every taste. The focus is on harmoniously dry wines from the Pinot family. Various sparkling wines and seccos complete the range. All products can be tasted outdoor, if the weather allows it, or in the bright and friendly tasting room. TThe magnificent view of the Rheingau makes the enjoyment of the wines an unforgettable experience.

German, English and French are spoken on the estate.

Ingelheimer Rotes Kreuz

Ingelheimer Rotes Kreuz (Red Cross of Ingelheim)

Red crosses and magnificent Portugiesers

German Red Cross? No. The DRK does indeed maintain a local association in Ingelheim, but it has nothing to do with this single vineyard. The location was first mentioned in a document in 1383 with the name "an dem Crutze". A red field cross gave this vineyard its name. It was considered a resting place for the population at that time. The single vineyard between Ingelheim and Heidesheim presents itself idyllic and wild, with many hedges and fruit trees. Award-winning Portugiesers, among others, thrive on drift sand and limestone.

Ingelheimer Pares

Ingelheimer Pares

Pares from Paradies? Origin of name unclear, wines paradisiacal.

Where does the name come from? One can only speculate! Three variants are conceivable. Number one: The name of the site is derived from the Middle High German word "Parich" for "horse". In former times, there was an old cattle drift on this site, an agricultural path for driving cattle. Number two: In Latin there are the words "pār" for equal, on a par with and "pārēre" for to show oneself, to direct oneself towards something. Number three: The medieval term "paradeis" was shortened to "pares". The winegrowers particularly like this variation. The paradisiacal location! But wherever the vineyard name actually comes from, its lime and loess are ideal conditions for red wines, such as Pinot Noir and Pinot Madeleine. The single vineyard belongs to the Mainzer Berg, above Ober-Ingelheim.

Ingelheimer Sonnenhang

Ingelheimer Sonnenhang

Sun, Selz and super wines 

Not to be confused with the 1-hectare single vineyard "Ingelheimer Sonnenberg" in the middle of the city. The Sonnenhang is 88 hectares in size and is located in the extension of Ingelheim-Süd and on the Selz River. Sonnenhang and Sonnenberg are quasi-synonyms. This name comes from the generally favorable position towards the sun. Here, the Mainzer Berg slopes west-southwest toward the Selz Valley and allows optimal sun exposure. On limestone, loess and loam grow a variety of vines of rather strong style: Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir or Chardonnay. In the soil there are fossilized corals and snails.
