Uhlen

single vineyard in the municipality of Winningen (Cochem Castle area) in the German Moselle wine-growing region. The name supposedly goes back to owls that are said to have nested here in the past. The south to west-facing vineyards at 75 to 210 metres above sea level with a slope of 50 to 70% cover 15 hectares of vines. The extremely steep slopes can only be cultivated using monorack tracks. The main variety cultivated here is Riesling, from which Trockenbeerenauslese and ice wines are also produced in years with favourable weather conditions. The vines are mainly trained using the Moselpfahl, Trierer Rad and Vertiko training systems.
