Ölberg-Hart

The core of the Ölberg site, the Hart, is located around the Ölberg chapel and is classified as a VDP.Grosse Lage. The soil is characterized by very heavy tertiary calcareous marl, the so-called terra fusca. In the topsoil it is mixed with red sandstone rubble. The vineyard is located high up on the edge of the Haard, at the end of the Klausental of the Pfälzerwald. As a result, it gets the sun early in the morning and in the evening it is just as early in the shade of the mountains and in a nightly stream of cool air from the valley. From the Ölberg, the oldest part of the Gewann Hart, we produced our auction wine “Kapelle” for a long time. Since 2020 we press from the entire Gewann the VDP.Grosse Gewächs Ölberg-Hart. A fantastic wine. Slightly reductive, long and cool.
