Welcome to the website of the Sonnenmulde Estate family owned winery. Here you can find out more about us, how and where we manage our organic wine farm and of course about our wines. With pleasure we offer a little insight into their creation and tell what else happens in our winery throughout the year.
In spring organic vineyards can be spottet from a long distance. The green manure plants are in full bloom, long before our vines develop their own flowers. Green manure offers food and habitat for small insects and bigger animals alike. Even hare or deer youngs like to hide between the growing greens. Our vineyards are therefore not only an important contribution to biodiversity, the green manure also provides essential nutrition for our vines, without the need for any synthetic fertilizers. But honestly, the beautiful sight is reason enough to enjoy the view this time of the season.

This also fights the weeds next to our vines while the greenery between the rows is left to bloom. The picture nicely shows the outcome, before and after ploughing.
