The two vineyards for Landgeflecht belong to the vineyard site of Oestrich Doosberg. The vineyards comprise slight southern leaned slopes. The soil is made up of a mixture of loessially and clayey loam with some grey Quartzite. The gravels date from the past (about 60 million years ago) when at that time the riverbed of the Rhine has had a huge extenison up to an elevation of 120 meter above sea level. The supply of water is perfect. The roots of the vines don’t suffer from drought and supply the grapes with enough water.
