A large number of vineyards from the Bad Kreuznach region already obtained top ratings in the Prussian classification of vineyards dating back from 1901. In den Zehn Morgen objective is to restore the age of outstanding wines from Bad Kreuznach and to enliven the potential of their vineyards. In 2013, the vineyards of the great Ökonomierat August E. Anheuser wine estate was bought by Steffen Montigny, an estate which had already been renowned for over 100 years for their prestigious terroir. 

They have been cultivating their vineyards in harmony with nature since 2016, using traditional sowing methods and good compost to improve the soil. They like to give their wines plenty of time to mature, which provides them with natural stability and particular complexity. For them, the vision of In den Zehn Morgen is only imaginable with responsible cultivation.

They vinify traditional expressive wines in both “Premier Cru” and “Grand Cru” classifications. Alongside Riesling, which has been growing continuously in these soils for more than 100 years, they believe that Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are the only varieties able to interpret the local terroir.
