Nahe

Wine-growing area

young - volcanic - top

With around 4,100 hectares and the Nahe valley area, the Nahe growing area is the sixth largest and youngest growing area in Germany, because the area has only been named after the 1971 wine law. Before that, the wines were called Rheinweine. The cultivation area and the Nahe river end at Bingen in the Rhine, directly opposite the Mäuseturm and opposite the Schlossberg castle in the Rheingau.

Around 116 kilometers upstream we find the headwaters near Nohfelden-Selbach in Saarland. The locations themselves are widely distributed and are not directly on the river as on the Moselle.

In the middle area of ​​the Nahe, the river makes its way through imposing rock formations, some relics from a brisk volcanic activity from 250 million years ago. The cultivation area provides abundant soil profiles such as the deep rocks porphyry, melaphyre and quartzite or deposition sedimentary rocks such as limestone, clay and loess as well as metamorphic rocks such as Devonian slate. With Helmut Dönnhoff, the Emrich-Schönleber and Schäfer-Fröhlich wineries, we have three top wineries with an international reputation.

With its 550 hectares of classified area, the Nahe growing area only takes up a small proportion of the VDP's designated vineyards, but it still has a wide geological diversity to offer. The vineyards extend from the southern edge of the Rhenish Slate Mountains to the Nahe side valleys of Alsenz and Glan. On the Lower Nahe, between Wallhausen and Bingerbrück, you can find Devonian rocks such as phyllite, green schist and quartzite. In the greater part of the near region, sandstones of the Oberrotlying dominate the subsoil. Around Monzingen, blue and red slate define the soils. Between Bad Münster and Schloßböckelheim, volcanic weathering dominates. The region is rather cool in comparison - but many vineyards have a special - and significantly warmer - microclimate due to their orientation and their protected situation as well as the influence of the Nahe.

A kind of location classification existed on the Nahe a hundred years ago, which was based on the property tax of the respective parcel. The results were documented in 1901 in a "Nahe wine-growing map for the Koblenz administrative region".

The terraces of the legendary Kupfergrube site rise up in a purely south-facing direction.

One of the most spectacular vineyards in the world! Like an amphitheater, the gigantic Rotenfels towers over the tiny stage – a few narrow terraced vines – on which only Riesling can play so impressively. The vines are rooted deep in the volcanic ryolite debris that has crumbled off the more than 200 meter high rock massif over thousands of years. Who the Rotenfels - an immense heat storage! – seen glowing in the evening light, can well imagine what the wines of this unique location tell about. The rare bottles of the Bastei GG are very valuable with their enormous mineral content!
