Katja and Jens Bäder studied viticulture in Geisenheim and got to know each other there. Even though everyone has their "area of responsibility" - decisions are made together - from the time of harvest to the final blend. Unique is the location "La Roche" in Uffhofen. South exposed, a real steep slope. The soil comes from the time of the Rotliegendes. The result of this vineyard, the Riesling "La Roche" reflects this: mineral, complex and multi-layered.

On the estate English and German are spoken.

Uffhofener La Roche

Uffhofener La Roche

The only vineyard with a French name

Hard to believe, but true: This single vineyard is the only one with a French name. It was owned by the Huguenot family La Roche from Erbes-Büdesheim. The dialect spoken in Rheinhessen actually used many French words. In the center of the single vineyard: one of the most famous landmarks of Rheinhessen, the trullo at the Geistermühle. A small, whitewashed round building. There are two of them in Flonheim alone. They are unique for the Rheinhessen region. Rieslings and Pinot Noirs of great renown grow here on red clay and sandstone.

> French words in Rheinhessen: for example Määr (French maire) for mayor or Schåndarm (French gendarme) for policeman. See: http://post.gabsm.de/mundarten_in_rheinhessen.pdf

The location was mentioned in a document in 1654 with the name "on the sacred path". It is assumed that the location was given this name through the reference to a holy figure on the edge of a path that leads to the pilgrimage church in Bell.

Alzeyer Rotenfels

Alzeyer Rotenfels

Red, white, yellow and and vineyard cottage.

There are two possible interpretations for the name’s origin: one option is that the term is based on a deforestation (German: “Rodung”). Obviously, an old area was cleared here, trees were felled and their roots removed. However, the name could also be derived from the colour red (German: “rot”), because the core area in the site consists of red topsoil, oxidised volcanic rock. There even is a song in Alzey, referring to the old site name Rotental (now part of the entire single vineyard): The song describes the single vineyard “Rotental”, where viney grow and claims that no real person coming from Alzey can live without wine. In addition to volcanic rock, there are also yellow-coloured loess soils and white limestone rocks. The single vineyard "Alzeyer Rotenfels" is south-facing and warm. The numerous vineyard cottages invite you to take a walk and rest. All grape varieties are grown here.
