Vineyard

The small Gewann KRONNEST lies like a falcon's nest at the upper end of the VDP.GROSSEN LAGE BERG ROTTLAND at an altitude of around 150 meters. This parcel of around 4 hectares borders the Ramstein rock formation and was in parts not affected by the land consolidation in the early 1970s. The original vineyard walls still stand on this steep slope today

The Wegeler winery recultivated three terraces in 2015. A habitat for herbs, warmth-loving animals and Riesling vines was created.

The old Middle Rhine double pile education (also called Kauber education) was selected as typical for the terraced vineyard location. Old Riesling clones from the 19th century adapt perfectly to the tanus quartzite. Blooming herbs and flowers give an insight into natural viticulture.

The Upper Nature Conservation Authority of the State of Hesse and the Eltville Viticulture Office provided advice to the winery during the implementation of the terrace project.
