P.J. Valckenberg

Winery with royal clientele

In 1786, the founder Peter Joseph Valckenberg was the first to export German wines to Europe and the world on a sustainable basis. England in particular was a popular export country and soon royal houses and dukes were among his clientele.

His wine trading business developed at a rapid pace into an international import and export company.

Over several generations

The Valckenberg wine trading company has now been in existence for more than 230 years and has been owner-managed with a great deal of passion right from the start. Through the generations, everyone sees themselves as discoverers and ambassadors of the wine world - including the current owners Tilman Queins and Peter Bohn.

The wine line

With varietal wines from the Palatinate and Rheinhessen, Valckenberg offers you an attractive introduction to the world of the most famous and interesting grape varieties.
