A single vineyard designation that occurs several times in Germany, derived from a former princely estate. There is a Kurfürstenberg in Waldrach (Mosel).
The east to south-southwest facing vineyards with 30 to 60% slopes cover 94 hectares of vines on shell limestone and Keuper soils. They are mainly planted with the varieties Silvaner, Riesling and Pinot Noir. Shares are held, for example, by the wineries Fröhlich Clemens, Fröhlich Michael, Sauer Horst, acid Rainer, Schäffer Egon, Weingut Am Lump and Zur Schwane.

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.
