Welcome to Schlossgut Diel!

My family has been making wine here for seven generations, and now it’s my turn to lead. The Nahe region is ideal for our Rieslings, Pinot Noirs and Pinot Blancs. The vines are old and lend a character completely unique to this place. I love the challenge of drawing out their best and learning just how much remains to discover even here in this familiar ground. In fact, I can imagine no greater gift than sharing that joy with family, friends and wine lovers. Welcome!

Vineyards

»The wealth of terroir«

The Diel family has been cultivating their little stretch of the Nahe region since 1802. Few places on earth offer so many different soils in such an incredibly compact area — making it virtually predestined for fine winegrowing. Caroline Diel appreciates just how blessed she is to work with this wealth of terroirs. She loves the minerality of her Rieslings, the finesse of her Pinot Noirs and the complexity of her Pinot Blancs. 

What distinguishes a Diel wine? The diversity of the soils, a climate that is nearly Mediterranean and the unerring hand of its expert winemaker. Three factors in beautiful harmony. Each vineyard has its own distinctly characteristic soil, thanks to the primordial stone of the Permian age: loessy clay, quartzite, gravel and slate.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

»Winemaking in harmony with nature«

Hours and days on the hill. Pruning the vines. Teasing out the essence of the soils. Followed by harvest, and then the cellar work. Modern technology plays a very limited role in this. Almost everything is done by hand. Schlossgut Diel practices sustainable winemaking, in harmony with nature. Its ancient vineyards are more than just a home for Caroline. They are also an unfathomable bounty from which she seeks to draw the very best, year after year. Through carefully honed instinct, hard work and judicious intervention at the right moment.  



Better to open a bottle of wine than a barrel!
