Weingut Salwey is one of the founding wineries of the VDP (Verband Deutscher Prädikatsweingüter) elite winery alliance in Germany. It has a total of 25 hectares of vineyards, including four grand cru vineyards, all with volcanic rock terroir.

Weingut Salwey is located in the southwest of Germany, in the Kaiserstuhl area, the most core and famous part of the Baden wine region. In fact, the entire Kaiserstuhl area is a large dormant volcano, and the winery's vineyards are on the slopes of the volcanic belt.

Konrad, based on inheriting his father Wolf Dietrich Salwey's ambition to build the winery into a top - tier German Burgundian - variety winery mainly focusing on Pinot Noir, is renowned for trying new winemaking methods and can always distill the pure Weingut Salwey wine style. Besides Pinot Noir, his Pinot Gris is a benchmark not only for Weingut Salwey but also throughout Germany today.

Adhering to the concept of environmental protection, the winery adopts a fully manual harvesting method, picking the fully - ripe grapes in batches and carefully sorting and brewing them in the winery located on the mountain. The wines maximize the restoration of the inherent characteristics of the grape varieties and the terroir features of the planting area. The vast majority of the winery's wines are aged in oak barrels. The winery's winemaking philosophy is: as little as possible, as much as necessary.
