Single vineyard designation that occurs several times in Germany. The Celtic term Lay (Ley) means "rock" or "slate rock" and refers to the rocky subsoil. Schieferlay is therefore strictly speaking a pleonasm (like "white mould").

Dernau - Ahr

The vineyards mainly face east, in smaller side valleys south to south-west. The steep vineyards cover 21 hectares on mainly greywacke soils interspersed with hanging loam. Pinot Noir, Blauer Portugieser, Domina, Frühburgunder, Regent, Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris), Kerner, Müller-Thurgau and Riesling are mainly cultivated here. The Bertram-Baltes, Deutzerhof, Kreuzberg, Riske Erwin and Riske Reinhold wineries, for example, have shares in the site.
