Apostelgarten

single vineyard in the municipality of Michelbach (Mainviereck area) in the German wine-growing region of Franconia. The southwest-facing vineyard with a slope of 30 to 40% covers ten hectares of vineyards on primary rock soil with mica slate. It is criss-crossed by dry stone walls and stone dumps. To the west, it offers an impressive view over the Maine plain. The vineyard has been a listed building since 1985. The varieties cultivated here include Riesling and Silvaner. The wineries Heilmann Franz and Höfler Bernd, for example, have shares in the site.

Voices of our members

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
