The steep slopes of Villa Huesgen

Villa Huesgen, a winery located in Traben-Trarbach, Germany, has a rich history dating back to 1735. Ado Huesgen, the eighth generation, currently leads the winery with a passion for the Mosel region and its breathtakingly steep slopes. The vineyards are cultivated with great care and respect for nature, with an eye to the future. Villa Huesgen produces exclusively high-quality wines that are refined and complex, perfect for savoring. The Riesling grapes come from the Trabener Würzgarten vineyard, near the Mosel. This vineyard is very steep, with slopes of up to 60 degrees, and the soils consist of slate. Here, the grapes ripen optimally and enjoy a unique microclimate. The grapes are carefully harvested and taken directly to the winery. There, they are foot-crushed, after which the resulting juice is macerated with the grape skins for several hours. The grapes are then pressed, and fermentation takes place. The juice then remains in contact with the yeast cells for a long time, giving the wine a wonderfully complex character.
