We take our motto from the song of a well-known German folk singer:

Life will be beautiful again, no doubt!
Please get in touch – we are happy to cater to any request you may have!
Looking forward to seeing you soon,
Your team at the Drosselhof
OUR TIP!
THE RARITY,
COMING FROM THE COLD
Hand-picked at minus seven degrees minimum and fermented in a still frozen state – that is our ice wine! It includes the sweetness of the “summer of the century” 2018, and due to the low quantities, it is going to get more and more exclusive. Coveted icewines are rare and their value increases every year.
We united THREE of the most exciting single-origin ice wines for you belonging to this grandiose “summer of the century” as a limited TRILOGY.
The only restaurant in the Drosselgasse
with its own song
Our restaurant has a long tradition. Founded in 1725 as the first guest house in the Drosselgasse, it has weathered many hard times since then. In 1885 Otto Hausmann wrote the Drosselhof its own song
„Zu Rüdesheim in der Drosselgass“
J. Pauli later put the words to music and all radio stations broadcast the song, making Rüdesheim, the Drosselgasse and the Drosselhof famous far beyond the city limits.
