A.Christmann Olberg-Hart Riesling Grosses Gewachs 2023

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 characterised 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 Haardt, at the exit of the Klausental of the Pfälzerwald. As a result, it is in the sun early in the morning, but just as early in the evening, it is in the shade of the mountains and gets a nightly stream of cool air from the valley. In the Mount of Olives, in the oldest part of the Gewann Hart, has long been our auction wine “Chapel”. Since 2020, we press from the whole Gewann the VDP.Grosses Gewächs Ölberg-Hart. A fantastic wine. Slightly reductive, long and cool.
