Winery Steffen Schabehorn
Sörnewitz | Saxony
Wine-making has been a family tradition for the Schabehorns for over 400 years. What began as a sideline developed into the Steffen Schabehorn Winery as we know it today, situated directly on the Saxon Wine Route, in the year 2000. In the vineyards "Meißner Kapitelberg%$, "Proschwitzer Katzensprung%$ and "Weinberg am Weingut%$, the varieties Müller-Thurgau, Riesling, Bacchus and Kerner, as well as the red wine varieties Pinot Noir, Regent and Dornfelder.
For the past 15 years, the winemaker has relied exclusively on organic cultivation.
He is also the only winegrower in the region whose entire range is 100% vegan. None of the animal by-products commonly used are added during production; instead, they are completely replaced by plant-based alternatives.
Around 15,000 bottles are bottled each year and matured in his own cellar.
Schabehorn has also made a name for himself with his excellent sparkling wine, produced in -house. For this, he uses his Riesling grapes in the traditional bottle-fermentation process.
