Two small springs surface from the rock above this parcel and trickle down through it, so even in the hottest Mosel summers the vines here never go into drought stress — the single most useful thing to know about Unterste Jonpfad. It is the western-most and coolest of Vollenweider's dry Goldgrube parcels, west-facing on grey slate with a little red slate mixed in, framed by forest and scrub that hold moisture in the soil and release it slowly. Daniel Vollenweider recultivated and replanted the entire 1.5-hectare plot in his final years, using massal-selection cuttings taken from old own-rooted vines in the Goldgrube and the neighboring Schimbock, so the young vines carry the genetic material of the historic ones. The name means roughly the lower path of Jon, after an old vineyard track still visible today that once ran down the slope to a ferry landing on the river. Deeper, more fertile soil makes this the juiciest of the three dry parcel wines — and it is bone dry, Trocken, with no residual sweetness.

WINE GUIDES

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
