The "Weingut & Edelobstbrennerei Stefan Reinhardt" is located in the municipality of Niederkirchen (Mittelhaardt/German Wine Route area) in the German wine-growing region of Pfalz. The business has been run by Stefan Reinhardt and his son Lukas since 1987. The vineyards cover 17 hectares of vines in the single vineyard sites Herrgottsacker and Nonnenstück (Deidesheim), Bischofsgarten (Forst), Klostergarten, Osterbrunnen and Schlossberg (Niederkirchen), Linsenbusch, Nußbien and Reiterpfad (Ruppertsberg), as well as Luginsland (Wachenheim). They are planted with the white wine varieties Riesling (75%), Pinot Blanc, Müller-Thurgau, Kerner, Chardonnay and Cabernet Blanc, as well as the red wine varieties Pinot Noir, Blauer Portugieser, Dornfelder, St. Laur ent, Regent, Cabernet Dorsa and Cabernet Mitos. The vineyards are cultivated according to natural, environmentally friendly criteria. Pest control is carried out by means of pheromones; insecticides are not used. Yields are reduced by thinning out the grapes to increase quality.
The white wine grapes are subjected to whole bunch pressing. All wines are fermented under refrigeration, in some cases spontaneously. The red wine grapes are aged in barriques after a mash fermentation. The top quality is the edition line "vinum meum" with Weißer Burgunder Deidesheimer Nonnenstück (fermented in barrique), Riesling Ruppertsberger Reiterpfad (spontaneously fermented) and Spätburgunder Ruppertsberger Nußbien (15 months in barrique). In addition, bottle-fermented sparkling wines, secco (sparkling wines), noble brandies (wine, marc, yeast, fruit), liqueurs (fruit, fig, cafe, tiramisu) and wine jelly are also produced. The winery is a member of Bauern- und Winzerverband Rheinland-Pfalz Süd and Generation Riesling.
