Odinstal is simply about wine, which reflects the DNA of this wonderful place
The winery was acquired in 1998 by the Hensel family, who, together with farm manager and winemaker Andreas Schuhmann, uncompromisingly focus on quality and authenticity. Very delicate wines with subtle aromas are produced here.
The Odinstal winery dispenses with modern cellar technology and strives for agricultural individuality that works in cycles and delivers high-quality wines every year with little intervention. Quite simply, it is all about wine that should reflect the DNA of this monopollage.
Andreas Schumann, who learned his wine craft from the renowned wine legend Hans Günther Schwarz in the Palatinate, is now one of the leading experts on biodynamics in Germany. For him, biodynamics - the Odinstal winery is a Demeter member and certified - is a fundamental attitude of the entire winery and all their employees. Very few farms put the biodynamic idea into practice as consistently and carefully as Odinstal.Wild animals such as deer and wild boar are regular visitors up here, while wild flowers, wild herbs and rare insects surround the estate house and vineyards. This little clearing high above Wachenheim has an almost mystical feel - a place where nature can be experienced in all its glory and magic.
