YOUR WINERY IN THE AHR VALLEY
Weingut Max Schell - the home of Ahr wine
We are the third generation to have dedicated ourselves and our winery to traditional
winemaking. Like our founder and namesake Max Schell, we harbour a life-long love for a
valuable natural asset and devote ourselves heart and soul to producing Ahr wine. Would
you like to experience our wines? Whether you’re a novice or a wine buff, you can sample
our Ahr wines in the friendly atmosphere of our vinotheque, or the romantic winery cellar. If
you would like to experience the charm and peace of the Ahr valley, our exquisitely furnished
holiday apartments are the perfect place to take a break. A lifelong love is boundless.
We look forward to meeting you in person, whether it’s shopping for wine in our vinotheque,
at one of our wine tastings, or during a unique holiday in one of our holiday apartments in the
heart of the estate. Share the joy of Ahr wine.
Yours, Wolfgang Schulze-Icking and team
