Over 700 years ago, Cistercian monks brought Pinot Noir to Malterdingen. The monks' estate, called "curia", was located in the Mönchhofmatten district. The Huber winery is located there today. In Malterdingen, the monks encountered the same terroir, the "shell limestone weathered soil", as in Burgundy. And they brought the knowledge of wine with them. In various wine encyclopedias, the terms “Pinot Noir” and “Malterdinger” are synonymous of Pinot Noir.
The 28 hectare estate includes mainly Pinot Noir (70%) and Chardonnay (20%).
