Herrnberg

single vineyard in the municipality of Gau-Bischofsheim (Nierstein area) in the German wine-growing region of Rheinhessen. The site is divided by residential development. The east to southeast facing vineyards at 150 to 205 metres above sea level with slopes of up to 45% cover 25 hectares of vineyards. The soils consist of loess, hanging loam and sandy clay. The white wine varieties Riesling, Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner are cultivated here. The Becker Marco winery, for example, has shares in the site.

There are other vineyards named Herrnberg in the municipalities of Flörsheim, Frauenstein and Hochheim (Rheingau), as well as in Umstadt (Hessische Bergstraße).
