Producer description of "Weingut Carl Loewen"

The "Carl Loewen Rieslingweingut" is located in the municipality of Leiwen (Bernkastel area) in the German wine-growing region. It is managed by Karl Josef Loewen. An important step in 1982 was the takeover of vineyards from the winery in the Laurentiuslay site. At the beginning of 2008, the Carl Schmitt-Wagner vineyard (Longuich) with 1.4 hectares of vineyards in the Maximiner Herrenberg was taken over. This vineyard was planted by Carl Schmitt-Wagner as early as 1896 and still stands in its original state. With a 10,000 canes/ha with well over a hundred-year-old ungrafted Riesling vines in traditional Moselle stake training, this vineyard is a vinological cultural monument. The vineyards cover a total of 12.5 hectares of vines in the single vineyard sites (Pölich), Klostergarten and (Leiwen), Maximiner Klosterlay (Detzem), (Thörnich), as well as in the aforementioned (Longuich).
