Rheingau – Single vineyard Schloss Johannisberg. The totally south-facing vineyard is steep as 45 degrees and climbs from 114 meters to 181 meters above sea level. The forest on top of the Taunus protects the vineyards from cold winds from the North and in the South the Rhine lays like a lake in front of the estate on the foothills. The 50 degree parallel (of earth) runs directly through the vineyard and the unique soil formation with Taunusquarzit topped with loam and rich loss is perfect for mineral Rieslings to keep water and temperature very well.
