With this in mind! Cheers!

NEWS
Dear wine lovers,
In a few days, the time has finally come! The Chemnitz Wine Festival will be officially opened on Friday, 26.07.2024. After that, it’s 24 days of partying, dancing, meeting friends, tasting new wines, drinking and enjoying the days.
A highlight this year: the wine festival will be 35 years old. And our organic winery has been taking part for 33 years now!
We are bringing some special features to this festive occasion:
Our 35-year-old 1989 Silvaner Spätlese, which can be drunk at the wine stand, is particularly special. You can buy this wine at the special price of €35.00 – while stocks last, of course.
Also special is our freshly bottled “Ulrubera” in vegan organic quality – a delicious Saint Laurent red wine matured in barrique barrels. It was developed by a doctor and Rüdiger, the winemaker, and Ulla, the nutritionist!
Each bottle comes with a leaflet telling you what the wine does and what dose you should take. You can feel the “feel-good character” from the first sip!
We have the summer collection especially for hot summer days. This fruity vegan organic wine is ideal for summer!
After its success in 2023, our non-alcoholic Secco Rosé is back again this year. This delicious, sparkling Secco brings pleasure to your glass without any alcohol. The alcohol is removed from the wine using a special process. We have it on offer for 7.20 EUR/bottle.
And for those who prefer the alcoholic “bubbles”, there is the Cabernet blanc Secco.
These wines and Seccos can also be ordered from our online store.

Review of the year, Christmas greetings and thank you
Dear wine lovers,
The year 2023 is coming to an end and we are looking back on our time at the winery.
January started very frosty. We pruned our vines in freezing cold temperatures. Just as it began, the weather continued to accompany us. The cold winter was followed by late budding of the vines and late flowering. The summer was initially hot and dry. Then came the long period of rain in August, which unfortunately led to some rotten grapes. The harvest started at the beginning of September with a lot of manual work. Most of the grapes were harvested healthy and with a medium yield.
It is still bubbling a little in the cellar. The wines of the 2023 vintage are delicate and full-bodied. We will bottle the first wines in spring. You can look forward to it!
We had some great celebrations at the winery. Instead of the “Open Day” on May 1, we celebrated the first birthday of our offspring Carl with the family. For the first time, our “Open Day” was therefore held in June together with the Garden Day.
We celebrated the wine festivals in Chemnitz, Bielefeld and Seligenstadt in beautiful summer weather. Many guests also visited us in Flomborn and used the time to take a vacation. Our three new barrier-free guest rooms have been well received!
We were able to present our vegan organic wines, including our new alcohol-free Secco Rosé, at the winter wine tasting in Chemnitz in November. In December, we’ll be going back to Langen for the Christmas market with mulled wine and punch, and we’ll be hosting the after-work mulled wine on December 15 in Flomborn.
And then comes the contemplative time! We are looking forward to the Christmas holidays and a special celebration with the family.
We thank you for the many wonderful encounters, your purchases and the trusting cooperation. We wish you a Merry Christmas and a good start to 2024!
Best wishes from Flomborn in Rheinhessen,
Your Familiy Bernhard-Räder
Autumn at the winery /Wine tour/Winter wine tasting in Chemnitz/Dates
Dear wine lovers,
the days are autumnal, the fog is moving across the country, the leaves are falling!
We have finished the grape harvest earlier than ever before. What a harvest!
The large amounts of rain in August led in part to rotten grapes, which were picked by hand.
With average temperatures of over 25 degrees, the grapes ripened very quickly.
Due to the high daytime temperatures in September, the machine harvest was mostly placed between 02:00 to 05:00 in the morning. During the hand harvest we had to protect ourselves against the sun with sunscreen. We haven’t had that for a long time! It is still bubbling a bit in the cellar. But most of the musts are fermented and we can taste the first young wines. The intensive work in the vineyard has paid off! Full of anticipation we look forward to the new vintage!
Now all 2022 wines are also filled. Would you like to taste with us?
You will soon have the opportunity to do so!
For wine lovers from the Saxony region, for example, in mid-November:
Because on Friday, 17.11.2023, we are in the Ratsstuben, Johannisplatz 1, 09111 Chemnitz.
From 15:00-18:00 clock it goes there to the open wine tasting. The participation is free of charge.
In the evening, our winter wine menu will take place from 19:00 with a three-course menu and accompanying wines.
The price is € 49.00 per person for the food and our vegan organic wines.
On Saturday, 18.11.2023 we go there again for open wine tasting from 13:00 – 18:00. Participation is free of charge.
In the evening, our winter wine menu takes place from 19:00 with a three-course menu and accompanying wines.
The price is € 49.00 per person for the food and our vegan organic wines.
There are still tickets available for both evenings. Please register bindingly with us at the winery by 30.10.23.
Wine lovers from the Rhine-Main area can visit us at the Langen Christmas Market, on the Advent weekends: 01.-03.12.23 and 08.-10.12.23.
We have opened our winery on Friday, the 15.12.23 from 17:00 clock to the Feierabendglühwein.
Or visit us in Flomborn after a short appointment.
But before that:
Between 02.and 03.11.2023 Rüdiger drives his wine tour through the Rhine-Main area and Saxony. He will be happy to refill your cellar. Please place your order by 28.10.2023.
We look forward to seeing you again soon!
Best regards from Flomborn in Rheinhessen,
Family Bernhard-Räder
Chemnitz wine festival + summer
Dear wine lovers,
Summer, sun, summer wine! True to this motto, we take advantage of the current season and spend wonderful days.
Here in sunny Rheinhessen it is very hot and dry. Rain would be very important for the vineyards, because the little grapes are already ripening on the vines and are thirsty.
Back to the topic of summer & wine! Back in 2021 we created a summer wine in collaboration with Mara Hörner, artist, lawyer and founder of the online magazine “Life is full of goodies” and Patrick Rosenthal, Spiegel bestselling author, food photographer and influencer. Due to popular demand, we have decided to continue to offer you a summer collection for 7.60 EUR.
With our own new label, we want to bring you a “sip” of the good mood of summer.
Another news that fits well into the summer: We now have a non-alcoholic Secco Rosé on offer for 7.20 EUR. This delicious, sparkling Secco brings you pleasure in the glass and completely without alcohol. By means of a special process, the alcohol is removed from the wine. Let us surprise you!
The first opportunity to taste the new products will be at the Chemnitz Wine Festival:
From July 21 to August 13, 2023, we will be at this year’s wine village on the town hall square. Our wooden stand will be located very close to the store HUNKEMÖLLER. We are very happy to see you all again!
During the period of the Chemnitz Wine Village, our popular order promotion is also valid again:
Order at least 54 bottles of vegan organic wine or sparkling wine and receive an instant discount of 20,00 € as well as free shipping!
This action is valid for orders within Germany.
Furthermore we have planned:
Dates in Flomborn:
September 24, 2023: Federweisser and onion tart at the organic winery
December 15, 2023: Feierabendglühwein in the Kreuzgewölbe at the organic winery.
Wine festivals:
September 05 – 10, 2023: Bielefeld Wine Market
September 22 – 24, 2023: Seligenstadt Wine Festival
Wine Tasting:
November 17 + 18, 2023.
Winter wine tasting with three-course menu in the Ratsstuben Chemnitz
– 13:00 – 18:00 h: open wine tasting
– from 19:00: three-course menu with accompanying wines
Registrations are now possible!
Christmas Market:
03 + 08 – 10 December 2023: Langen Christmas Market
You would like to visit us again in Flomborn?
Last year we were able to build three more guest rooms. And the special thing: They are barrier-free! So we can finally welcome guests with handicap and young families who need more space and ground level conditions.
These new guest rooms are located in the bungalow in the middle of the garden, which we now call the “Garden House”. So now our rooms and apartments are available in the guest house or garden house. We are looking forward to your booking request.
Kind regards
Your family Bernhard-Räder

Year in review, Christmas greeting and thank you 2022
Dear wine friends,
a special year comes to an end and we look back:
January- March: pruning is on the agenda. The 2021 wines are filled. We are planning a new project: the “love of asparagus”.
April- June: Bending and soil work are the order of the day in the vineyards. Finally we are allowed to celebrate again the “Open Day” on May 01.
And this celebration uses our son/grandson Carl around, to come on the world. We are very happy about his birth!
Also the open garden day can take place.
July-August: Time to celebrate! The people of Chemnitz celebrate in the most beautiful summer weather
for 24 days! The hot summer makes our vineyards hard. The months-long drought sometimes causes sunburn on the grapes.
Our freshly planted vines have to be watered to prevent them from drying out.
September: We start harvesting the first grapes. Despite the drought we can harvest good qualities in the vineyard!
The wine festivals in Bielefeld and immediately afterwards in Seligenstadt take place! It starts to rain.
October: The first young wines ferment diligently! On October 2, we wanted to read the last grapes at the grape harvest festival. But it rains!
A few days later we finish the harvest. We are very pleased with the new vintage, despite the heat in summer and wetness in autumn!
November: For the winter wine tasting in Chemnitz we can present our vegan organic wines in the Ratsstuben.
Our big rebuilding and renovation work in the courtyard in Flomborn is finished. Philipp, Alexandra and Carl move into their new home.
December: We go again to Langen to the Christmas market and create the Feierabend-Glühwein in Flomborn.
And then comes the contemplative time! We are looking forward to the Christmas goose and a special celebration with the family.
We thank you for the trustful cooperation, the great conversations and your purchase.
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a good start into 2023!
Best regards from Flomborn in Rheinhessen,
Family Bernhard-Räder
P.S. From 05.01.2023 you can reach us again.
