| Winery | The south-facing vineyard is steep, with a gradient of 45° and climbs from 114 to 181 metres above sea level. The Riesling vines are grown in quartz stone from the Taunus hillsides interspersed with red clay and topped with loam and rich loss, which retains water and the day's heat. This unique vineyard sees the 50° parallel run directly through the vineyard, and the forest on the top of the Taunus hillsides protects the vines from cold winds. The vines produce limited yields, and the grapes are carefully harvested by hand. Spatlese is translated as "late harvest": the grapes are harvested at least seven days after the normal harvest, so they are riper, have higher sugar content and produce wines of greater intensity. |
