Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt, one of Germany's oldest wine estates dating to 1349, farms roughly 46 hectares across the Mosel, Saar, and Ruwer under managing director Dr. Karsten Weyand and cellar master David Nicolay.

Bockstein is a celebrated Grosse Lage vineyard on Devonian slate above the village of Ockfen on the Saar, long known for producing some of the region's most powerful and structured dry Rieslings. The 2023 Grosses Gewächs is fully dry, built on the site's characteristic slate-driven minerality and tension.
