The FELSENBERG location is located in one of the narrowest parts of the Nahe Valley, which is lined with jagged rocks, which gives its name to this spectacular location. The southern slope, colored almost black by the melaphyre, rises steeply with an incline of up to 50%. Due to the dark color and the high proportion of rubble, the ground can be easily heated. The good ventilation results in an early start to vegetation and a long ripening phase for the grapes.
Our plot is 0.35 hectares.
The FELSENBERG wines are juicy in their youth, often with a breathtaking nose of tropical herbs. The concentrated, stony minerality and the very racy acidity often make them appear smoother than they actually are. They are bursting with energy and vitality, ending in a very long, crystal clear finish.
