The wine-growing region is located in Rhineland-Palatinate and a small part of Saarland in Germany. The Moselle river meanders 237 kilometres from Trier to Koblenz, but is only 96 kilometres as the crow flies. The vineyards cover 8,798 hectares of vines, stretching along the Moselle from its source in the Vosges mountains on the border with Luxembourg to its confluence with the Rhine near Koblenz, as well as along the two tributaries Saar and Ruwer. These three rivers gave the growing region its old name, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, which was valid until 2007.

The glossary is a monumental achievement and one of the most important contributions to wine knowledge. Of all the encyclopaedias I use on the subject of wine, it is by far the most important. That was the case ten years ago and it hasn't changed since.
