The Zusslin domain, located in Alsace encompasses three total vineyards. Zusslin describes Clos Liebenberg as follows:
''Clos Liebenberg (or the “lovely hill”) sits on 3.5 ha (8,7 acres) of slopes facing Southeast, right on the edge of the Grand Cru Pfingstberg. It is planted with Riesling on terraces. This unique place is completely en- closed by hedges and stone walls. It creates a perfect microcosm with a rich biodiversity. In 2003, we started using horses again to work the vineyards and since Februa- ry 2012, Sesame, a Comtoise carthorse, joined the Zusslin team. The result of our growing method and careful selection is a wine with great complexity, elegance, power and con- centration. On the palate, it is focused and straight. The final has a pronounced acidity with a pleasant freshness that gives depth and persistence. For us it is at a level of a Grand Cru.''<ref name ="ClosLiebenberg"> http://www.zusslin.com/en/vineyards/clos-liebenberg/ Domaine Valentin Zusslin - Clos </ref>
