Karl May Winery
The May family has been making wine in the Wonnegau region since 1815 – and it shows. Seven generations, one passion: authentic wines that taste of home. Today, Peter and Fritz May work together in the vineyard. Two brothers, one family, one goal: wines that don't deny their origins. The geological diversity of their vineyards in Wonnegau gives each wine its own unique character – mineral, complex, and distinctive. In the vineyard, the Mays practice organic viticulture. No rushing, but genuine craftsmanship that gives the soil and vines time to develop. You can taste the result in your glass: wines with character, wines that have something to say to you.
