Restaurant JuLe im Groenesteyn in Kiedrich, Rheingau, Germany with New Hosts and Concept: Traditional German Comfort Food at the Highest Quality Level and Wine from Kiedrich (November 2026)

Ahead of the Riesling Gala of the Glorious Rheingau Days 2026 in the Lay Dormitory of the Kloster Eberbach Monastery in the Rheingau, Germany, with 6 elite chefs, 33 elite winemakers and 600 guests, Annette Schiller Ombiasy Public Relations and Wine Tours and I had dinner at JuLe Im Groenesteyn in Kiedrich, Rheingau, Germany. 

 

 

The historic Groenesteyn tavern used to to be a MICHELIN Guide star fine dining place with an amazing list of French, Italian and German high-end wines. 

 

Early this year, Julia Schoenberger and her husband Leonard Tamke took over the historic tavern and introduced a new concept: Traditional German comfort food at the highest quality level and wines from Julia's winery in Kiedrich. 

 

Signature dishes of Chef Markus include "Rouladen" (which I had) and "Westpaelischer Gruenkohl mit Wurst" (which Annette had). Both dishes were the way we knew them from our mothers, perfect. With top wines from Julia's winery around the corner in Kiedrich.

 

The place was packed. The new concept has been accepted. We will be back.
