The vineyard
Kloster Eberbach's Assmannshäuser Höllenberg Spätburgunder Grosses Gewächs is a Rheingau wine that stems from the Assmannshausen terroir, a place where the Pinot Noir variety has been thriving for many centuries. The name "Höllenberg" historically refers to a steeply sloping terroir. This wine is made from very high quality plots of land, which benefit from a southern exposure.
