Westhofen Morstein Riesling GG

The pure south-facing slope extends up to a high plateau at 280 meters above sea level and is the oldest single vineyard mentioned in Westhofen (1282). In the middle section of the slope, between 180-240 meters above sea level, lies the VDP.GROSSE LAGE MORSTEIN with a slope gradient of 20%.

Here, one finds heavy clay marl soils with limestone deposits in the upper layer. The subsoil is dominated by water-bearing limestone rock layers, which guarantee optimal nutrient and mineral supply.
