Mosel

The Moselle, Sarre, and Ruwer rivers glide through narrow, twisting bends through territory in which the Celts and Romans already cultivated wine 2,000 years ago. The Moselle region, which bears the German appellation Mosel, is Germany’s oldest wine-growing region and the largest hillside wine-growing region.

The south or southwest facing slopes and terraces provide an excellent microclimate for the grapes, as well as for rare plants and animals. That is why the mineral and elegant wines of hillside Riesling, produced in the Moselle, Saarland and Ruwer region, are among the best white wines in the world.
