Philipp Kuhn Winery

Philipp Kuhn Winery – shaped by primeval, rugged limestone

The Philipp Kuhn winery is undoubtedly one of the beacons in the Palatinate region. The Kuhn winemaking family has lived and worked in Laumersheim since the 17th century. Philipp Kuhn has been running the winery since 1992 – he was just 20 at the time – when his father, seriously ill, put the winery in his son's hands. When the junior was just 16 years old, his father entrusted him with 2500 square meters of vineyards, right in the prestigious Kirschgarten site. A grand gesture and a courageous decision, which was duly rewarded.
