The Fair and Green e.V. association was founded in November 2013 with the aim of becoming a certified seal for sustainable viticulture. The practical relevance is demonstrated by the fact that renowned winegrowers and wineries were already involved when the association was founded: Clemens Busch (Weingut Busch Clemens), Reinhard Löwenstein (Weingut Heymann-Löwenstein), Nik Weis (Weingüter Nik Weis - St. Urbans-Hof) and Philipp Kuhn (Weingut Kuhn Philipp). The further development of the sustainability standard is supported by an advisory board from Geisenheim University (Rheingau).

The glossary is a monumental achievement and one of the most important contributions to wine knowledge. Of all the encyclopaedias I use on the subject of wine, it is by far the most important. That was the case ten years ago and it hasn't changed since.
