Wine Growing Conditions
The Riesling is grown on the slopes of the Mosel River Valley as far back as Roman times, and offers a slate soil to draw out the best grapes on any vine.
Gewurztraminer named after the Tyrolean village of Tramin, this ancient variety has been growing along the upper Rhine and in the Pfalz for centuries.
Liebfraumilch is a blend from the region of Rheinhessen that made it famous and where the name finds legacy in the vineyard where it was first made, the Liebfrauenstift-Kirchenstuck, a collegiate church in the town of Worms.
From the terraced, slate-soiled vineyards climbing the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer river valleys, the Piesporter Michelsburg is heralded as Piesport`s very own village wine.
