Alsace Grand Cru Wineck-Schlossberg

Katzenthal / Ammerschwihr, Alsace, France

Grand Cru

Named after the Wineck castle at the top of the hill

Appellation: Alsace Grand Cru
Grapes: Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Muscat
Vineyard: 27.49 ha

The name refers to the Wineck castle that stands at the top of the hill. The steep south-facing slopes rise from 280 to 400 m just above Katzenthal, on shallow soil (30 to 50 cm) of strongly weathered two-mica Turckheim granite that drains well and warms quickly in spring. It joined the grands crus in 1992.
