Ahr Spätburgunder 'Ahrweiler Rosenthal' GG 2019 Jean Stodden

The Rosenthal locality extends directly opposite the historic center of Ahrweiler. The profile of the land is characterized by high retaining walls and bridge pillars, the remains of a never completed railway viaduct. There are two theories about the origin of the name of this 50-hectare vineyard: on the one hand, the name could refer to a wild rose plantation, while on the other, it could derive from the word "Runst," which means running water, referring to a spring that once stood here. The vineyard soil is varied, ranging from grauwacke and shale in the eastern part, to silt in the upper part, to löss in the western half, along with löss-silt and shale.
