Weingut Kühling Gillot

The history of the Kühling-Gillot farm, located in the village of Bodenheim in the northeast of Rheinhessen, goes back a couple of centuries. In 2002, after graduating as a winemaker from Geisenheim, Carolin Spanier took over the responsibility of running the family farm from her parents, Gabi and Roland Gillot. Together with her husband Hans Oliver Spanier, Carolin has managed to raise the estate to the top tier of wine producers in Rheinhessen. This power duo is also responsible for Hans Oliver's family farm BattenfeldSpanier, as well as taking care of the couple's two sons.

Both of the couple's wineries follow the same principles: the vineyards are managed with organic and biodynamic methods, and in the cellars they try to bring out the terroir characteristics of each vineyard as little as possible. At Kühling-Gillot, there is no rush with the wines, but they are often brought to the market only when they are 2-3 years old, first allowing them to mature in peace in the farm's cellar.
