The microclimate
We cultivate the core parcel ”Himmelsrech“ of this site.

The origin
In 1557 it was known as ”am mandel Pfad“ pointing to the almond trees that are still shaping the landscape.
The soil
Poriferous loess layer over limestone interspersed with small limestone rocks.
The wine’s character
Expressive, frequently exotic fruit, tantalising acidity, powerful Rieslings.
