Krötenpfuhl

single vineyard in the municipality of Bad Kreuznach in the German wine-growing region of Nahe. It has been known by this name since 1832. The south-facing vineyard at 140 to 155 metres above sea level with a slope of 5 to 40% covers almost seven hectares of vines on loamy gravel soil with some alluvial loess. Mainly the white wine varieties Riesling and Kerner are cultivated here. The Anheuser Paul, Dönnhoff Hermann and Weingut in den Zehn Morgen wineries, for example, have shares in the site.
