Balthasar Ress opened the “Hotel Ress” in Eltville am Rhein in 1870 in what is today’s “Hotel Kronenschlösschen,” and soon after, wines listed with the Ress family name began appearing on the restaurant’s wine list. In the 1920s, Carl Ress, son of Balthasar, further developed the winery, and in the 1950s, Carl and his nephew Paul took over the acclaimed export winery “Hasensprung – Joachim Bäumer.”
Stefan Ress, the eldest son of Paul and today’s senior, joined the company as a limited partner in 1963. With a 1976 restructuring, export activities fell under Stefan B. Ress KG Weinkellerei, while Weingut Balthasar Ress became a pure wine estate.
Christian Ress, Stefan’s son, leads today with innovative ideas such as the private members’ club wineBANK and partnering with Olivier Brun to form Veritable Groupe. A négociant business named “Ress Family Wineries” was developed to produce brands from contracted growers. RFW brands include the popular WHITE RABBIT Riesling and a new RESS Organic line.
