| The estate is located in the commune of Wiltingen in the Mosel wine-growing region in Germany. It is one of the oldest estates on the Saar river, and has had a checkered history. This estate was previously owned by an abbey, and was run by the van Volxem family for four generations. It was taken over by Peter Jordan in 1993, he ran it under the name of Jordan & Jordan. It was purchased in 1999 by Roman Niewodniczanski (a scion of the Bitburger brewery dynasty), and revived under its old name. He is a graduate in business sciences and economic geography. He has made significant investments in the vineyards, including the purchase of additional parcels of land, in the buildings and cellar. The first vintage bottled under the new name was that of 2000. Today, the estate owns a total of 20 hectares of vineyards, these are mainly planted with Riesling (19,6 ha), the remainder is planted with Pinot Blanc. The vineyards include holdings in the following sites: Braunfels, Gottesfuß, Klosterberg, Kupp and Scharzhofberg (Wiltingen) and Altenberg#Altenberg (Kanzem). A special feature are the ungrafted 120-year-old Riesling vines on the Gottesfuß site. An additional six hectares are tended by contract growers in the so-called „Saar-Riesling-Projekt”, they are obliged to adhere to strict quality criteria. Sustainable, integrated vineyard practices are implemented, no insecticides or chemical fertilisers are used. Yields are extremely low, with an average of 34 hectolitrres per hectare (in 2003), and late harvesting which begins in late October and stretches through to December. In the cellar, natural yeasts are used, extended lees contact and maturation mainly in oak barrels are the order of the day. Most of the estate wines are vinified separately by vineyard site, and are sold as dry quality wines, or as sweet predicate wines. Two special Riesling wines are produced from the best sites, one from the entire area, and one a selection of the very best parcels of land, these are then stated on the label in addition to the vineyard site. Beginning in 2003, the Saar-Riesling-Projekt has produced a dry Saar Riesling blend, as well as a fruity Alte Reben (old vines) Spätlese and a dry Van Volxem Alte Reben Riesling. The estate has been a member of the VDP (Verband deutscher Prädikats- und Qualitäts-Weingüter) association since 2007.
