Karthauserhof
The single vineyard estate makes wines exclusively from the Karthäuserhofberg vineyard. One important step taken by Mr. Tyrell was to remove every third row of vines, which improved exposure of the vines and their grapes clusters to the sun and air, as well as easing vineyard work. Karthäuserhof uses no pesticides, preferring pheromones, which prevent insect pests from reproducing. The 19 hectares or 47 acres of vineyards are planted 90% to Riesling (mostly original rootstock) and 10% to other varieties.
