The mill on the hill of Hucco

“in de Hocke gehen” (engl. to squat) means to bend the knees, to make oneself very small. Hence the name? No. The location was first mentioned in a document in 1348 with the name "hinter deme huckenbule". Middle High German "buhil" means hill. And "Hucken" probably comes from a personal name. The mill on the Hucco hill. Riesling, Silvaner, Müller-Thurgau and many more grow on deep, chalky loam and clay marl.

An old field cross and many different grape varieties

The site was first mentioned in 1471 with the name "an dem crutze". An old field cross gave this site its name. No surprise, as Jakobsberg monastery is not far away and still exists today. Not to be confused with the Ockenheimer Friedenskreuz, this one is not located in the "Ockenheimer Kreuz" vineyard. Different grape varieties grow on drift sand Rigosol.
