Which Einzellage is a monopole of Schloss Schonborn in Hattenheim?

Explanation:
The concept at play is monopole ownership of a vineyard. An Einzellage is a single vineyard site, and when it becomes a monopole, it means that single winery owns and controls the entire site, with no other producers sharing ownership or use of that vineyard for their wines. For Schloss Schonborn in Hattenheim, Pfaffenberg is the vineyard that they wholly own, so wines labeled Pfaffenberg from Schloss Schonborn come from an estate-controlled site and express Schloss Schonborn’s specific terroir. The other sites listed—Mannberg, Steinberg, and Schönhell—are not exclusively owned by Schloss Schonborn, so they do not function as monopoles for this house.
