Fine Riesling with particularly spicy fruit aromas in a beautiful

Harmony with a fine, crystal-clear fruit acid. The red sandstone

gives it its spicy, almost peppery aroma and characterful fruit.

Famous steep location in a small side valley of the Middle Nahe. The old name

Höllenpfad describes a special vineyard. “Hell” stands for that

steep slope and certainly also for the color of the red sandstone that is here

Mountain has such an extraordinary character. The landscape shines thanks to the red of the ground

in the evening sun often in a warm light. Maybe that's the name

“Hell” was also caused by the winegrowers because of the strenuous conditions

Work in the steep mountain. The weathered, warm sandstone of the Rotlegen

gives the wines their unmistakable character. The grapes are always

very small berries with thick skin and can therefore be harvested very late.
