Description

Nestled on a steep southern slope, this ancient and renowned site offers a stunning view of the volcanic landscape. The vines endure harsh conditions in the rocky soil, which warms up quickly in the sun and gives rise to distinctive Rieslings. These wines are celebrated for their lively fruitiness, crisp acidity, and flinty aromas that reflect the mineral richness of the land. In the heart of this extraordinary vineyard stands Felsenturmchen (“small rock tower”), a symbol of Donnhoff's dedication and passion. The Felsenberg wines are the result of a meticulous selection process that captures the essence of this unique terroir. They are dry, complex, and smoky, with a flinty character that is unmistakably Felsenberg.
