Winzerverein Hechtsheim

The winegrowers' association Winzerverein Hechtsheim consists of 15 wineries. The history of the cooperative began in 1971, when seven wineries united to present the wines of their region at major fairs and exhibitions in the country. In 1983, eight more wineries joined them. In 1984, the first wine tasting days were held, after which it became a tradition to hold such an event every spring, presenting the entire range of all Hechtsheim wineries. And in 1986, the cooperative became an independent association, which made it possible to use new marketing tools. Today, the cooperative is well known in the world, and the production volumes exceed 60,000,000 bottles per year.
