With the utmost care and craftsmanship, they manage to translate the terroir, the climate and the special features of their region into unique wines and sparkling wines that impress. The Federal Honorary Prize winners are guardians of German wine culture and at the same time visionaries who carry it into the future - with creativity, a spirit of innovation and a deep understanding of what makes wine: enjoyment, community and the connection to home. « Freya von Czettritz, CEO of DLG Holding.

We would like to invite you to celebrate with us! The Weyher Wine Festival will take place from September 6th to 9th, 2024. The whole village will be on its feet and there will be musical and culinary offerings in every courtyard! It feels like the whole world is meeting in Weyher. OK, maybe that's a bit subjective. But there are actually several thousand people who all come to our idyllic village to enjoy and celebrate and spread a party mood.
Our main season also begins NOW ! From September 9th, we will be open every day (except Tuesdays). Let the Canadian-Palatinate delicacies from Kristine's Lamesa melt in your mouth while you enjoy a wonderful glass of wine, the panoramic view in our garden and the fruity autumn air.
