Which Rüdesheim hillside Einzellage is listed?

• A. Berg Roseneck
• B. Berg Rottland
• C. Berg Schlossberg
• D. Höllenberg

Answer: (C)

A single-vineyard designation reflects a named hillside site with a distinct terroir. In the Rheingau, certain hillside locations around Rüdesheim are recognized as Einzellagen, meaning wines from that site can bear its precise name.

Schlossberg is the classic, well-known Rüdesheim hillside Einzellage. Its name—and the recognition of it as a listed site—comes from the steep slopes and unique soil profile on which Riesling thrives, often producing wines with pronounced minerality and ageability. The other names are real hillside sites in the region, but Schlossberg is the one typically listed in reference materials as the Rüdesheim hillside Einzellage singled out for official designation.
