single vineyard in the municipality of Cleebronn (Württembergisch Unterland area) in the German Württemberg wine-growing region. The name comes from the St. Michael's Chapel at 394 metres above sea level, which was built on the Stromberg in early Christian times. There is historical evidence of a 1200-year history of winegrowing here. The chalky Keuper soils are mainly planted with Lemberger (Blaufränkisch), Schwarzriesling,Pinot Noir, Trollinger (Schiava Grossa) and Riesling. Shares in the site are held, for example, by the Dautel winery and members of the Cleebronn-Güglingen winegrowers' association.

I have great respect for the scope and quality of the wein.plus encyclopaedia. It is a unique place to go for crisp, sound information on terms from the world of wine.
