With the settlement of German immigrants to Azerbaijan from Württemberg in the early 19th century, the wine making practice in central Azerbaijan was modernized. The Germans who settled in the village of Khanliglar in 1819, by the town of Goygol, established a German colony called Helenendorf. Shortly thereafter, they were engaged in grape growing and wine making activities of the region. In 1860, after substantial investments from Christoff Vohrer and Christian Hummel, the Goygol Winery was opened. In 1862, they established the Vohrer Brothers company, managed by Christoff Vohrer and his sons Gottlob, Friedrich, Henrich and Christopher, and the Hummel Brothers Trading House, managed by Christian Hummel and his sons Jacob, Albert, Georg and Gotlib. Both companies were based in Helenendorf and had chapters in Ganja, Baku, Tiflis, Saint Petersburg, Moscow, Kiev, Odessa, Tomsk and Batumi.
