Collection: Meyer-Nakel

The name of our wine estate goes back to the marriage of our grandparents Paula Meyer and Willibald Näkel in 1950. They cultivated an area of just 1.5 hectares, yet were able to make a name for themselves because Willibald's production of dry red wines represented thoroughly pioneering work at the time.  With an uncompromising claim to quality, Meyer-Nakel succeeded in establishing an entirely new Pinot Noir style on the Ahr, and by the end of the 1980s Werner was already considered one of the most important vintners in Germany.
