As early as 1440, the cultivation of one Jucharte of vines on the Klingen by the Höngg family Zweifel is documented for the first time. At the beginning of the 20th century, wine production on all vineyards in Höngg had to be completely abandoned due to the phylloxera epidemic that had been rampant since 1886 and the emergence of "downy mildew". This was also the case at the Klingen, where the last Höngg "Reblauser" Albert Müller had to eradicate the last phylloxera-infested vines until the 1920s.
