The winery is located in the municipality of Bad Kreuznach in the district of Bosenheim in the German wine-growing region of Nahe. Founded in 1828, the winery has been run by Roland Mees (master winemaker) and Dagmar Mees (consultant for German wine) in the seventh generation of the family since 2003. Son Lukas successfully completed his training as a winemaker in 2013. The vineyards cover 14 hectares of vines in the single vineyard sites Paradies and Rosenberg (Bad Kreuznach). They are planted with the white wine varieties Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Silvaner, Müller-Thurgau, Muskat-Ottonel, Sauvignon Blanc, Huxelrebe, Bacchus, Kanzlerrebe and Scheurebe, as well as with the red wine varieties Pinot Noir, Dornfelder, Blauer Portugieser and Dunkelfelder.

Only yield-reduced, healthy and physiologically ripe grapes are processed. The wines are aromatically matured using gentle cellar techniques. The white wines ferment slowly and in a controlled manner in stainless steel. The red wines mature in large wooden barrels after traditional mash fermentation. A wide range of Prädikat wines is produced, from Spätlese to Beerenauslese; in suitable years also Trockenbeerenauslesen and ice wines. Other products include a Blanc de noirs (white pressed from red wine grapes), white herbste, bottle-fermented vintner' s sparkling wines, secco (sparkling wine) and grape juices.
