Ried Heiligenstein is characterized by its terraced, south and southwest-facing slopes with a unique geological composition preserved through the ages. The surface rocks consist of feldspar-rich, reddish-brown sandstones and coarse conglomerates, with occasional siltstones. This distinctive terroir contributes to the wine's complexity and mineral-driven profile.
