Nierstein – an iconographic name, associated with the Roter Hang and the Rheinhessen Rhine front like no other. The terroir is rooted in the stony, porous clay slate soils of Nierstein as the tasteable origin of the Erste Lage sites. The Nierstein Riesling, with its unmistakable character of origin, shines with extract-rich fruit, an open structure and taut tension with the greatest possible finesse and vibrancy. It combines everything that characterises a great terroir for us: fully ripe grapes from porous soils, grown on the finest parcels of the Niersteiner Horst, with stringent minerality. The grapes are carefully harvested by hand, fermented spontaneously and matured in Doppelstück 2400l barrels on the fine lees.
