Weingut Otto Görgen: A Family Legacy in Viticulture

Located in the picturesque Cochemer Krampen region, Weingut Otto Görgen is a family-owned winery with a history dating back to 1707. Now in its eighth generation, the winery is managed by viticulturist Matthias Görgen and his parents. They blend traditional viticulture practices with modern techniques and advanced equipment to produce exceptional wines. The steep Moselle slopes provide an ideal environment for their vineyards, which have garnered a loyal following of wine enthusiasts.

Commitment to Quality

Weingut Otto Görgen cultivates approximately 14.5 hectares of vineyards, with half situated on steep slopes. Key vineyard locations include Briedel, Mesenich, Beilstein Schloßberg, Briedern Rüberberger Domherrenberg, and Ellenz-Poltersdorf. About 80% of their vines are dedicated to white grape varieties, predominantly Riesling, while red grape varieties make up 20% of the vineyard. The slate soil retains moisture and absorbs heat, creating a favorable microclimate for grape cultivation. The winery produces a range of wines, including traditional red, white, rosé, sparkling, and dessert wines, all crafted with sustainability in mind to protect the environment and enhance the quality of their offerings.

Visitors can enjoy wine tastings in their charming tasting room located in Beilstein on weekends for just 10.50 Euro per person. This is a wonderful opportunity to sample their high-quality wines and learn more about the winery's rich heritage.
