Winerie

Zeller Schwarze Katz is one of the most memorable vineyard names in the Mosel area. The legend about the black cat, that launched a famous wine in Germany is unique. In 1863, two wine merchants decided their wine purchase trough a black cat, which crept into the cellar and leaped up onto one of the barrels. 

Terroir

The Riesling reached 90 degrees in places, but grapes with Spätlese and Auslese quality (late harvest) as well as for noble sweet rarities remained the exception, with the majority between 70 and 80 degrees. The alcohol content is described as moderate and in line with prevailing market trends.
