Vineyard

The Almond Mountain is a south-southeast slope, and therefore enjoys optimal sunlight. The vineyard has a slope of approx. 15-20% and is about 220 m above sea level. The soil in the Mandelberg is a shell limestone that was formed in the Triassic era 220 million years ago. The small white limestones with which this soil is littered store the heat of the sun during the day and release this heat to the earth at night. One finds fossilizations of marine flora and fauna again and again. The limestone soil, with its active lime content, is a prerequisite all over the world for producing great Burgundy wines.
