The origins of
a successful company
In the 19th century many individual growers in the region joined together
out of economic necessity to form small wine-growing cooperatives:
they aimed to work more efficiently by joining forces. As a result
of these mergers, three major sub-regional cooperatives had been founded
by 1960:
Gebietswinzergenossenschaft des Kreises Cochem - in Ernst
Winzergenossenschaft Mittelmosel - in Wehlen
Saar-Winzerverein - in Wiltingen
In 1969 these cooperatives merged with Hauptkellerei Koblenz to form
the largest wine-growing cooperative in the state of Rheinland-Pfalz.
The result was the creation of Moselland located in Bernkastel Kues.
For more than a quarter of a century the name Moselland has guaranteed
consistent high quality. As a result, in 2000 members of the Nahe
wine-growing cooperative decided to join this successful company.
