Possible candidates for the most northerly cultivated vines in the world's northern vine belt are Alaska, Finland, Latvia, Norway and Sweden. The wine-growing areas there lie from the 60th to the 62nd degree of latitude. The most northerly vineyard in terms of quality viticulture is the Werderaner Wachtelberg in the German town of Werder (Brandenburg) at 52 degrees 23 minutes north latitude.

Even more northerly vineyards can be found on the island of Sylt in Schleswig-Holstein at 54 degrees 54 minutes north, owned by the Ress Balthasar winery, where only country wine may be produced. Others are located in the southern province of Skåne near the Baltic Sea coast in Sweden and the Eventyrvin vineyard near Gvarv in Norway.
