The 250 million year old “Red slate” -Soil from permian times and the special microclimatic setting on the steep slopes next to the impressive River Rhein build the base for the creation of unique wines. At the Moment the Hasselbach Family cultivates 24ha of vineyards which are planted with 85% Riesling. Working with their vineyards they feel obliged to preserve the plants and the sanity of the soil for the generations to come. Already with an cautious pruning they are aiming for very low yields around 50 hl/ha. Their ambition is to find the perfect balance of aromatics, a fruity acidity and the typical minerality of our slaty soils. of the Grape-Berry. They are fascinated by the harmony between concentration, liveliness and a strong mineralic-deepness.
