Niersteiner Zehnmorgen
10 acres, almost 3 hectares, many limestone rocks
Good morning? No. “morgen” does not refer to start of the day, but to the unit "acre". Ten acres are about 2.5 hectares. In fact, that is roughly the area of the single vineyard, which is where its name comes from. On top of loess, in the subsoil of the Zehnmorgen lie large limestone rocks and heavy clay - unusual for Roter Hang, which is characterised by Rotliegend. The single vineyard site is like a small plateau, a stage. Surrounded by an old vineyard wall. The Riesling vines are over 50 years old and are solely owned by the St. Anthony winery.
