Lichtenberg

single vineyard in the municipality of Geradstetten/Hebsack (Remstal-Stuttgart area) in the German wine-growing region of Württemberg. A special feature is that the local registry office has been established in a vineyard cottage (Hüterhütte). The southwest to south-facing vineyards with 20 to 40% slopes cover 70 hectares of vines. They are optimally protected against westerly winds. At an altitude of 350 metres above sea level, there is a spring that provides a good water supply. The soils consist of Keuper, clay and coloured marl, as well as reed sandstone in higher-lying plots. The varieties cultivated here include Lemberger (Blaufränkisch) and Riesling. The Ellwanger Bernhard and Ellwanger Jürgen wineries, for example, have shares in the site.
