The estate is located in the municipality Nierstein (Nierstein area) in the German wine-growing area of Rheinhessen . The history of the house dates back to 1561, as documented in a stone vault of the "Mathildenhof, where the estate resided until autumn 2006. Over time, the estate changed owners several times. In 1909 it was bought by the Heyl and was now called "Freiherr Heyl zu Herrnsheim". In 1969 the estate was acquired by the husband of the heiress of Peter von Heyl Weymarn. He was one of the first producers in Germany, a gutseigene vineyard classification introduced and since then only the names of the best locations on the label anführten. The vineyards were already of his early-1980s completely controlled St. Antony . Both wineries are the end of 2006 in the renovated former estate of Gustav Adolf Schmitt moved. In March 2008 it was decided to combine the two. Heyl to Herrnsheim remains the same as wine line, even for its own membership in the VDP is sought (the winery was a member). The grapes come exclusively from Heyl Herrnsheim to steep slopes in the red slope and cover 10.2 hectares of vineyards in the individual layers Brother Mountain (exclusive possession), Hipping , Mount of Olives and Pettenthal Nierstein, and Rothenberg in Nackenheim.
