After acquiring the land in 1899, the winery J. W. Huesgen planted Riesling at Laurentiusberg. The holdings later passed through the Langguth family and their foundation winery, before the vineyard was acquired in 2018 by the Karthäuserhof. A documented wine from old vines, mostly from the upper part of the Waldrach Laurentiusberg, was a dry Riesling.
