Weingut Gunderloch
The bright red soils of the Roter Hang do more than lend the vineyard its name; they impart a distinctive mineral character to the grapes, forming the structural backbone of the wines. The family understands the value of founder Carl Gunderloch's near-monopole position on the magnificent Rothenberg, along with holdings in Pettenthal and Hipping. Their meticulous and tireless efforts in the vineyard yield deep, concentrated wines that balance elegance and expression.
