Schlossböckelheimer Kupfergrube

Nestled gently in the breathtaking landscape, the Kupfergrube vineyard rises almost majestically above the surrounding vineyards. 

Thousands of hours of work were required at the beginning of the 20th century to transform a former copper mine into a flourishing vineyard. The VDP.GROSSE LAGE® Kupfergrube not only carries a fascinating past within it but also an unparalleled depth that is reflected in every drop of its wines. The soils of this south-facing slope are characterized by volcanic melaphyre, covered by deposited carbon shale, imparting a unique smoky note and warming spice to the wines. The Kupfergrube possesses an unmatched mineral interplay. Its complexity always demands a period of maturity to achieve balance. Matured Große Gewächse from the Kupfergrube then become true Riesling monuments, with unparalleled aging potential.
