… remind you that our vineyard, including the château, is our private property! We are happy to tolerate guests who don’t get rowdy and take their rubbish back with them. Unfortunately, this is increasingly not the case! It is a great pity that some black sheep (or rather “non-socially-minded” people) disfigure our jewel!
The first work assignment in 2024 took place without snow. As always, the Schneggen did their best to prune the vines, not without the usual excellent food from the vineyard kitchen provided by Kirsten. Our amateur photographer Gerd N. then took some interesting snapshots after the snowfall in January, a small selection of which can

Like every “normal” year, the Schneggen ended their general meeting with a festive Christmas menu. Once all the main points had been clarified and the most important decisions had been made, the cosy part of the evening could begin together with the wives. We were able to officially introduce our new member Renato and “candidate”

Due to the worrying condition of the red grapes, it was decided to split this year’s harvest in half. A short-term appointment ensured that the red grapes could not shrink any further and instead ended up in the mash. 10 days later, on the “official” harvest date, the remaining light grapes were harvested. It was

What’s blowing on the flagpole then? After a super great day at work and barbecue, the flag was taken down and our find was pulled up from the vineyard.
On Pentecost Saturday, the barbecue area on the Schnegg was reserved by member Uwe Degner and some friends/relatives. Part of the group spent a few days on the Donnersberg and on Saturdays we met up with other holiday friends on our Wingertschnegg for a happy reunion. Unfortunately, the day passed far too quickly, at 9:30

After almost 2 years, it was finally possible for us in Schneggen to celebrate a great Schnegge Christmas dinner with our partners. As always, there was great excitement about what Christine and Bernd and their team conjured up for us. And like many years before, it was again a great experience with wonderful wines, the

… Vintage 2022 was successful! Thanks to numerous hard-working helpers in the vineyard and at the stove, it was almost like the old days again! The 2022 vintage was successfully carried out with a lot of fun and a really good result. Even if a few reading helpers were missing due to illness and scheduling

Our new label for our 2021 wine is ready. Since the yield for a dedicated white and red wine pressing was not high enough, the members decided to make a “rosé” out of it. As always, our Jochen put a lot of effort into getting the best out of the approx. 2500 l grapes. As
