Weingut Arndt F. Werner hosts weddings, private celebrations and company events for about 50 to 120 guests. The estate stands on Mainzer Straße in Nieder-Ingelheim, a district of Ingelheim am Rhein in northern Rheinhessen, right beside the walls of Charlemagne's imperial palace. Events take place in a planted inner courtyard and in the restored Kelterhaus, the former press house, with wines from the estate's own certified organic production.
Seminars and company events
The estate does not sell conference packages, but it does host company celebrations in Rheinhessen, such as a summer party, a team evening or a client event. Groups of ten or more can also book a guided wine evening on a date agreed with the family. The format runs about two and a half hours and includes eight to ten wines with small snacks, a walk through the vineyards and a visit to the historic cellars. Personal tastings in the Vinothek and wine seminars with a cellar tour are offered on request, which suits a team outing or an incentive for a client group.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are one of the main uses of the estate as a venue. The courtyard allows a celebration under the open sky in summer, while the Kelterhaus gives a covered room for the dinner or the party. The estate also hosts milestone birthdays and other family celebrations in the same range of 50 to 120 guests. Each event is planned individually with the family.
Rooms and capacities
Two settings are offered. The Innenhof is a green inner courtyard for receptions and outdoor dinners. The Kelterhaus is the renovated former press house, used as an indoor event room. The estate gives a range of about 50 to 120 guests for weddings and company events. Its FAQ also mentions a barn, without further detail.
Catering
The estate leaves the choice of caterer to the client, so the menu and the service can be planned freely. The wine pairing comes from the estate itself. The family focuses on Burgundy varieties, above all Spätburgunder, and keeps a cellar with bottles from vintages back to 1959.
History and setting
Johann Baptist Werner, postmaster and wine grower, founded the estate in 1819. The family now runs it in its eighth generation. Arndt and Birgit Werner took over in 1988, and Thomas Werner has led the estate with his wife Tanya since 2024. The vineyards cover about twelve hectares of traditional sites around Ingelheim that were never reparcelled, on calcareous loess sands and limestone. The estate converted to organic farming between 1981 and 1983 and is a member of Bioland and ECOVIN. Each year it also holds a public Hoffest in its courtyard.
