Terroir
Rich and heavy soil with varying soil structures, gently inclined,
sunny south facing slopes and a mild climate form the characteristics
for the ideal terroir of our sites – a wonderful location for
cultivation.
There is no grape variety capable of reproducing the particularities
of its terroir as remarkably well as the Riesling. Its green-yellow
colour is a sign of freshness, its flavour is spicy and lively –
a “spritzig-witzig-fruity" taste.
Schloss Reinhartshausen’s Estate comprises a total of 15 different
vineyard sites within the districts of Erbach, Hattenheim and Kiedrich.
Each of these sites is recognised for its very individual character
fundamentally influenced by soil variations and microclimate. From
this variety, only the most valuable and precious vineyards are chosen
for classified wines and “first growth”. Cuvée
from the remaining vineyards are established as our Gutsweine (Estate
wines).
