Founded by a couple of cousins in 1845, it wasn't until 1894 when Henriette Häusser married Eduard Christmann that the latter name took over the former as the estate's moniker. the "A" was added subsequently by their son, Arnould. Organic for decades and biodynamic since 2004, the soil for their saline-rich Idig GG is, unusual for the region, a mixture of marl and limestone.
