GROSSES GEWÄCHS "Im Fusswingert"
In our best plots our Great Sites of the Moselle we produce our GROSS GEWÄCHSE. Special care and precise selection are necessary, because only the perfectly ripened golden yellow fruit can be used for these wines. Thanks to their richness in mineral extracts and their dense fruit, these icons from our best plots of the most renowned Grossen Lagen are always a delight. Since they are precisely our best plots, the wines also proudly bear the name as an addition, thus announcing their special origin.
The full name of this parade plot in the famous Trittenheim pharmacy is "Hinter'm Fahrhaus im Fusswingert" and thus already describes the position quite accurately: it is located directly on the Moselle bridge that connects the Trittenheim side with the Leiwen side and represents the entrance to the main footpath of the steep slope. Our Fusswingert benefits from the large water surface in the Moselle loop and the optimal exposure to the sun. This is because the sun's heat is reflected back into the vineyard, where it is stored in the slate stones. A good water supply also ensures that the vines lack for nothing. Low yields ensure even higher quality and careful selective hand harvesting in several passes ensures that only the best grapes are used.
