Orbel is one of the well-known "Große Gewächs" appellatios in Nierstein. The combination of south facing slope, sufficient water supply and pure Rotliegend soil is just perfect. The name probably derives from the medieval word Ölbel, which means something like strong guy. And indeed, the wines from the Orbel are full-bodied and charming in their own way.

The Orbel impresses with juicy, ripe fruit aromas such as passion fruit, vineyard peach and tangerine. This is a complex Riesling that shows muscle while remaining elegant. You can drink it now, but it will become more complex and terroir driven with some years of aging.

Grand crus

Only our best plants are allowed to bear the name of the location in which they were grown. The prerequisite for this is the limitation to our best plots, which are predominantly steep slopes on the Red Slope. Perfectly ripe, small and aromatic grapes thrive here. In order to get their full aroma, we work with maceration times, spontaneous fermentation and long storage on the whole yeast.
Réserve stands for a high-quality wine that has been stored in wooden barrels for a long time.
