Idig

single vineyard in the municipality of Königsbach (Neustadt/Weinstraße, Mittelhaardt-Deutsche Weinstraße area) in the German wine-growing region of Pfalz. The name is derived from the initials I. D. for Jesus Domini on a former field cross in the location. The site, known since at least the 14th century, was underestimated for a long time. It was only after a change of ownership in 1835 to Haus Buhl that the quality was fully realised.

The south to south-east facing vineyards at 120 to 175 metres above sea level with a slope of 10 to 25% cover 18 hectares of vines. They are sheltered from the wind to the west by the Rolandsberg and the Haardtgebirge. The soils consist of limestone marl with lime sand in the subsoil and have excellent water retention capacity. The main varieties cultivated here are Pinot Noir and Riesling. The Christmann Arnold, Ohler Johann and Weik Bernd wineries, for example, have shares in the site.
