Wine estate Villa Huesgen
Villa Huesgen - Nine generations of winemaking on the Moselle
The history of the Huesgens and their wine began in 1735. In that year, Johannes Huesgen I moved from the Lower Rhineland to the Moselle and founded the Huesgen wine trading house. He started to cultivate wines on the Moselle and thus founded the family tradition.

The origin of great wines - Tradition - Home - Modernity
At the center is the villa of the Huesgen family, as family residence, company headquarters and symbol of the family tradition. Built according to the designs of the Berlin architect Bruno Möhring, it is still considered a jewel of Art Nouveau today. The villa stands for the foundation of a great wine tradition. A tradition that today is continued, lived and redesigned in a modern way by Adolph Huesgen VIII.

The VILLA HUESGEN Grand Cru site wines are a genuine reflection of the great vineyards and their underground. The steep slate vineyards of Steffensberg, Bei der Kanzel, Zeppwingert, Gaispfad, Birm and Bergpächter, where these Grand Cru wines grow, were classified in the highest level according to the "Prussian Vineyard Classification of 1868".
Respectful and responsible to nature, 100% hand tended and hand harvested, they are vinified in the traditional way - true to the principle of "controlled inactivity" - allow what nature determines. The result is complex wines with multilayered texture and expressive character of their terroir.
Craftsmanship meets zeitgeist
All the wines of VILLA HUESGEN are the result of a very high quality standard both in the vineyard and in the cellar. Rigorous yield limitation and intensive foliage work are the credo. The grapes are harvested by hand, mostly in several selective harvests. Once in the cellar, only healthy and physiologically optimally ripe grapes are brought to the winery, where they are subjected to ideal conditions and individual treatment.
" Enjoying means dedication. Good quality is always preceded by a lot of work in production. We believe that quality is generated in the vineyard, and must be preserved in the cellar."
Tradition and cautious handling of grapes and vines
In the cellar, the work that began in the vineyard continues. It is essential to preserve and develop the quality that has been yielded: by means of gentle work processes and innovative vinification techniques, but also with experience and intuition. Also decisive is intuition. Here, VILLA HUESGEN trusts its cellar master Edgar Schneider. VILLA HUESGEN wines are mainly vinified in stainless steel tanks as well as in barrique and wooden barrels.

Award winning wines - made by happy people
