Notes from Weingut Wageler:

"The Wegeler vineyards cover 41.40 hectares in the Rheingau and 12 hectares on the Mosel. In addition, there are around 3 hectares of Pinot Noir from the Krone winery in Assmannshausen. The winery in Bernkastel-Kues has 90% Grand Cru sites, in the Rheingau the sites comprise 70% Grand Cru and 20% Premier Cru sites. The Krone in Assmannshausen has only Grand Cru and a small part of Premier Cru sites.

Since the premiere vintage in 1983, Geheimrat "J" has been our top dry Rheingau wine without any indication of the vineyard. The best grapes from up to 15 different VDP.GROSSE LAGEN from vineyards around Rüdesheim, Geisenheim and Oestrich-Winkel are the basis of this assemblage as the pinnacle of our quality philosophy for dry wines. Strict quantity limits, the selective hand harvest and a long maturation on the fine lees guarantee are all guarantees of quality; our internal standards for Geheimrat J far exceed the official requirements of the VDP for Grosse Gewächse. The longevity of this icon of German wine confirms our approach.
