IM PITTERBERG, Münster-Sarmsheim | VDP.GROSSE LAGE®
The VDP.GROSSE LAGE® IM PITTERBERG lies in a small convex slope in the upper Nahe Valley in the middle of the Pitterberg vineyard. The south facing site is ensured sufficient sunshine that warms the grey Devon slate and its weathered debris. The soil is highly mineral; very fine loam covers the slate. The soil is well-drained and holds little moisture, which can lead to dryness in summer. Nighty fall winds are diverted by hill. Primarily Riesling grows in this site.
