This grand cru site is owned exclusively by the Georg Breuer estate. It's named after the nuns of the Abbey Tiefenthal. The Nonnenberg soil benefits from a combination of stony phyllite, loess and loam. The vineyard gives wines with full body and racy acidity which are capable of long ageing.

Breuer’s 2006 Rauenthaler Nonnenberg Riesling trocken offers a Malvasia-like combination of fresh lime, narcissus, and violets on the nose. Musk, flowers, lime, peach, and red currant opulently but vibrantly fill the mouth and the exotic side of this Riesling nicely complements its sheer ripeness as well as testifying to the slightly decadent nature of the fruit this vintage. I detect scarcely any heat. Plan to follow this for 5-7 years, but I would not anticipate longer-term potential.
