... said by a sommeliere about us.
Our vineyards are spread over 17 different single vineyard sites in eight different villages along the Rhine River in the Rheingau region.
This is quite unusual, however it offers you the opportunity to enjoy the diversity of the Rheingau region. Below is an overview of our major vineyard sites.
The soils types of our vineyards include sand, loess, marl, slate to meadow with a slope gradient vary from gentle to steep slope sites.
Please find here our vineyard map:
The Rheingau is characterized by its geographic position with only south facing slopes and the lake like Rhine river. The deep clay soils have good water-holding capacity although there is only a little rainfall (530 mm per year). This is because of the Rheingau hills and the humus development out of our cover crop management, which has been ongoing for two decades. The main focus is on keeping natural soil vitality. The use of natural grape growing methods and no pesticides, combined with minimum yields is the base for quality, which is further improved by a late, selective hand harvest.
