single vineyard in the municipality of Bernkastel-Kues (Bernkastel area) in the German Moselle wine-growing region. The west to southwest-facing vineyards with a 50% slope at 115 to 135 metres above sea level cover eight hectares of vines. The soils consist of medium-textured, stony, blue-coloured weathered clay slate. Here, mainly the Riesling variety is cultivated, for the most part in the traditional Moselle stake method of cultivation (single-pole training), which is still widespread here. The vineyards of Dr. Loosen, Dr. Pauly-Bergweiler, Geheimrat J. Wegeler Erben, Joh. Jos. Prüm, Molitor, S. A. Prüm, Wwe. Dr. H. Thanisch Erben Müller-Burggraef and Wwe. Dr. H. Thanisch Erben Thanisch all have shares in the site.

I have great respect for the scope and quality of the wein.plus encyclopaedia. It is a unique place to go for crisp, sound information on terms from the world of wine.
