Melsheimer Description
For more than 200 years, the Melsheimers have been growing grapes in the quaint Mosel town of Reil. With 10 hectares of mostly steep vineyards, all work is done by hand, and a large majority of the vineyards are certified as cultural landscape. Thorsten and his wife Steffi have worked organically since 1995, and focus exclusively on Riesling, a rarity in the Mosel. The main vineyard Thorsten focuses on is the Mulay-Hofberg, where the slate-dominated soil is maintained in terraced plots, along with extremely steep pitches. All of the work is done by hand, and only traditional methods are used in the cellar.
