The DELLCHEN is located in the immediate vicinity of our KIRSCHHECK location. The name comes from the small mountain hollows, known in local dialect as “DELLCHEN”, which lie between the steep rocks of volcanic origin. The extremely steep terrain, which faces exactly south, is terraced with dry stone walls and is therefore an ideal heat storage facility. Our plot in DELLCHEN is 0.32 hectares in size
The DELLCHEN wines are characterized by an exotic fruitiness, supported by a mineral structure, fine but also very complex.
