Herritage
The Langguth’s started out as wine merchants, offering a selection of wines produced in family-owned cellars. At the turn of the 19th Century, to top estate owners typically cultivated multiple individual slopes in the best sites along the Moselle, Saar and Ruwer rivers, regardless of the distance between them. This was done to broaden the portfolio of wines they could offer. Our slopes are still spread across several communities of the Moselle valley and were first recognized as what are known today as GROSSE LAGE® and ERSTE LAGE® on the historical wine map issued by the Prussian government in 1868.

Ellergrub in Enkirch
This very old and for a time undervalued rocky and steep GROSSE LAGE® slope, sits atop a former slate quarry. It is rich with blue-slate soil and influenced by the microclimate of the Moselle River. The mainly old, ungrafted vines, produce both rich and light wines, known for their minerality.

Gaispfad in Traben
Three south-facing terraces soar steeply upwards from the Moselle River on this ERSTE LAGE® site and provide optimal conditions for root irrigation. The Riesling grape has been planted here for hundreds of years. The Devonian slate soil is rich in minerals, which lend the wines a typical Moselle-Terroir bouquet.
