Bischöfliche Weingüter Trier
The Bischöfliche Weingüter, the Episcopal Wine Estates of Trier, own and manage the prestigious wine estates of
'Bischöflichen Priesterseminars', the Bishops’ Priest Seminar,
'Hohen Domkirche', the High Cathedral of Trier
'Bischöflichen Konvikt', the Bishops’ Convent and
Friedrich-Wilhelm-Gymnasiums, the Friedrich-Wilhelm Grammar School. The approximately 130 hectares of vineyards are situated on premium sites along the river Mosel and its tributaries the Ruwer and the Saar. The main grape variety is Riesling, covering 87% of the total wine-growing area. The fruity, elegant Riesling wines from the steep slopes of the three river valleys are individually fermented in a single wine cellar in Trier.
The wine cellar The impressive 20,000 m² cellar of the Episcopal wine estates is located underneath the city centre of Trier stretching out from the Seminary towards the Constantine Basilica. In 750 wooden barrels matures the juice or must from the sites of the Seminary, the High Cathedral, the Convent and the Friedrich-Wilhelm Grammar school. In the more than 400 years old vaulted cellar the wines can mature in the necessary tranquility that’s so important for the winemaking process as well as a constant temperature and humidity level. Visiting the cellar is a fantastic experience.
