single vineyard in the municipality of Ungstein (Bad Dürkheim, Mittelhaardt-Deutsche Weinstraße area) in the German wine-growing region of Pfalz. The name is derived from the many walnut trees that used to stand here among the vines. The south to south-west facing vineyards at 110 to 150 metres above sea level with slopes of 5 to 15% cover 68 hectares of vines. Due to their size, the soils vary. The loamy sandy soils are partly gravelly and covered with fine soil. The best plots are located on the centre slope of the site.

The white wine varieties Riesling, Rieslaner, Traminer and Scheurebe, as well as the red wine varieties Pinot Noir and Dornfelder are cultivated here. The Bärenhof, Isegrim, Pfeffingen, Weingut am Nil, Wolf Michael and Zeter Oliver wineries, for example, have shares in the site.

The Wine lexicon helps me to keep up to date and refresh my knowledge. Thank you for this Lexicon that will never end in terms of topicality! That's what makes it so exciting to come back often.
