The German Wine Institute (Deutsches Weininstitut or DWI) is the central communication and marketing organization of the German wine industry. 

The DWI's core task is to promote the quality and sales of wines from the 13 German wine-growing regions through competition-neutral marketing measures in Germany and abroad. These include press and public relations work, the implementation of information campaigns including corresponding events, participation in national and international trade fairs, and the organization of wine presentations and events together with German producers around the world.

Information and communication

The DWI provides comprehensive information about wines and events in the 13 German wine-growing regions at deutscheweine.de and additional sites in the respective national languages, in podcasts, a specially developed app called "Deutsche Weine" (Google Playstore and App Store) and social media channels.

In addition, the DWI issues information brochures, regular information services, publications and promotional materials, conducts training courses and seminars, especially for representatives from the restaurant and retail sectors, as well as market research, and advises the wine industry on sales promotion issues at home and abroad.

Working worldwide for domestic wine producers

At the DWI, based in Bodenheim near the ‘Great Wine Capital’ Mainz, around 45 employees are currently committed to the interests of the German wine industry under the leadership of Managing Director Melanie Broyé-Engelkes. In addition, there are the "Information Agencies for German Wine" (Wines of Germany) in defined foreign markets for German wine exports. Currently, the DWI is active in a total of 11 international markets: China, Finland, Great Britain, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, the Czech Republic and the USA.

With a wine making tradition dating back to 1886, the Schlink Family has been marketing their wines internationally since the end of the second World War. With a classic wine portfolio complimented by innovative, new concepts, we are able to fulfill a wide variety of wants and needs on the international wine market. Our number one market is Germany, closely followed by the United States, China and Hong Kong.

Weingut Fritz Waßmer – Burgundian Finesse from the Markgräflerland

Weingut Fritz Waßmer stands for premium quality and has been honored by Deacanter, Robert Parker, James Suckling, Gault & Millau, Vinum, Feinschmecker, and Eichelmann. Inspired by Burgundy, Fritz Waßmer brings deep knowledge of terroir and craftsmanship to every bottle.

With 46 hectares and a strong focus on Pinot Noir, the estate produces expressive, elegant wines shaped by hand harvesting, dense vineyard plantings, and ideal soils and climate.

Three quality tiers define the portfolio:

• Estate Wines: Fresh and varietal.
• Premium Wines: Reduced yields, refined in oak.
• Single-Vineyard Wines: The pinnacle—powerful, complex, aged in new barriques.

Guided by the next generation, Waßmer remains committed to creating distinctive wines with true Burgundian elegance.

High-quality wines can only be produced with intensive and thoughtful vineyard work with a focus on biodiversity, lively and humus-rich soils for a natural balance. This, in combination with the care of the vines by hand, allows the production of loose bunches as well as fully ripe and aromatic grapes. Our philosophy is to accompany rather than shape the vines on their way to the final wine. The result are wines that are strong in character, complex, specific to their origin and that will be remembered.

Les vins de haute qualité ne peuvent être produits qu'avec un travail intensif et réfléchi dans le vignoble, mettant l'accent sur la biodiversité, des sols vivants et riches en humus pour un équilibre naturel. Cela, combiné à l'entretien des vignes à la main, permet la production de grappes lâches ainsi que de raisins pleinement mûrs et aromatiques. Notre philosophie est d’accompagner plutôt que de façonner les vignes sur leur chemin vers le vin final. Le résultat est des vins au caractère affirmé, complexes, spécifiques à leur origine et qui marquent les esprits.

Welcome to the Mosel!

We are running this Winery “Weingut Hubertushof” with our family since six generations in the south-west of Germany, Rhineland-Palatinate, in a small village called Trittenheim.

The family business was first noted in 1780 and is producing outstanding dry, semi-dry and sweet Riesling wines with intense and rich flavors from the steep slopes of the Mosel valley since.

I am proud to invite you to get to know the taste of our grapes from the sun spoiled vineyards and the grey slate soil.

Our high quality, fair prices and quick service is what makes us interesting to international customers.

Let´s explore our wines from Trittenheim together and we hope to get to see you at our booth!

The Rheingau is one of the most distinguished wine regions of the world. Moving from east to west, the fairly flat, dimpled landscape evolves into progressively steep slopes. Hochheim am Main, our home, actually lies on the Main River shortly before it joins the Rhine, setting it apart from all other Rheingau winegrowing communities. Weingut Künstler has been in family hands since 1648. We focus on Riesling and Pinot Noir but also grow varieties as Chardonnay, Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc. We produce our wines using cutting-edge cellar technology combined with traditional craftsmanship. Taste and harmony are of paramount importance for our wines. When making wine, we concentrate on achieving the ideal balance between residual sweetness, alcohol and acidity. Our work in the cellar focuses squarely on retaining the quality of the grapes. When our work is done right, you can taste the individual character of each single vineyard site in the wine.

Weingut Leitz stands among Germany’s most acclaimed  wineries, celebrated worldwide for its outstanding Rheingau Rieslings. Rooted in Rüdesheim’s steep slate vineyards, Leitz crafts expressive, terroir-driven wines that combine precision, elegance, and depth. With a global presence in top restaurants and wine markets, Weingut Leitz represents the very best of modern German winemaking.

The Frey winery is located in the heart of the village Ober- Flörsheim, at the southern border of the Rheinhessen grapegrowing area. Germany’s largest wine country has perfect conditions for growing superior wine grapes and first-class wines. The 100% estate grown wines are organically farmed on various soil types and diverse microclimates. Between Biebelnheim in the north and Ober-Flörsheim in the south, the winery-owned vineyards are spread over 20 km in longitude.

Massive limestone rocks, arose in the tertiary, provide the basis of the terroir. Mineral Rieslings and creamy and delicate Pinots grow on loamey and clayey limestone soils. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are planted on gravely loess soils.
