Popular single-vineyard designation in the German Mosel wine-growing region, where it occurs six times in the municipalities of Brauneberg, Maring-Noviand, Neumagen, Pommern, Wehlen and Zeltingen. The name refers in part to sundials present in the sites and probably also to the sunny conditions.
See under Juffer sundial.
This south-southwest facing vineyard is one of the smallest in Germany. It comprises only 0.38 hectares of vines planted exclusively with Riesling on stony, loamy clay-slate weathered soil. The site is monopolistically owned by the Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt winery.

For me, Lexicon from wein.plus is the most comprehensive and best source of information about wine currently available.
