Wine estate Stiftung St. Nikolausspital
Founded in 1458 by Nikolaus vom Kues (Lat. = Cusanus), our wine estate is one of the oldest trust wine estates in Europe and owns holdings in some of the most prestigious vineyards of the Middle Mosel – a guarantee for outstanding sparkling and still wines. To prove that our wines belong to the best, we regularly enter them in wine shows and competitions. The results speak for themselves and demonstrate the quality of our wines.
