Niersteiner Kranzberg

Allow me to introduce myself: Mrs. and Mr. Craus or Kranz!

The site was first mentioned in 1418 with the name "off dem Crausberge". It is assumed that the name of the single vineyard refers to a personal name. The Kranzberg is the cone in front of the village to the north. St. Kilian's Church is enthroned in a prominent position. The site is mostly on the flatter slopes of the "Roter Hang"(red slope), i.e. it is not very steep. On loess loam, lime and sandy, clayey loam, mainly Rieslings grow – typical for "Roter Hang".
