The Hasselbach family of Gunderloch own 4 hectares of the Hipping grand cru. The site is located in an exposed position on the Roter Hang where the southeast and south-facing slope meet. Its position on the ‘Rotliegend’ formation between Pettenthal and Ölberg is significant and unites several outstanding preconditions for vines. The warmth of a broad lake-like section of the Rhine and intense sun exposure, a wind-protected site and the very weathered red slate of the steep slope allow small Riesling bunches of grapes to develop intense aromas and flavours. The family's prime parcel in Hipping is protected by a row of terraces and the steep flank of the Pettenthal. Hipping tends to yield wines of incredibly expressive exotic fruit and significantly creamy texture.
