Norheimer Kirschheck:
The oldest recorded vineyards of the Nahe are located in this part of the village of Norheim. Kirsche means “cherry”, so the age-old name of the site likely refers to the wild cherries that grow even today amidst the vines. The site faces due south and its soils are composed largely of grey slate mixed with sandstone.

"There is a whiff of pine that is followed by juicy nectarine and macerated apricot notes in this lush sptlese. It,s balanced and very expressive, with prominent acidity that flows authoritatively, but it is well merged with the rest of the elements. ‡ A.Z."
