Pfortenser Köppelberg

single vineyard in Schulpforte (Schulpforta), a district of the Naumburg neighbourhood of Bad Kösen (Neuenburg Castle area) in the German wine-growing region of Saale-Unstrut. The vineyard was planted by the monks after the foundation of the Cistercian monastery of St Mariae ad Portam (St Mary at the Gate) and was first mentioned in 1154. The vineyard lay fallow for a long time and was replanted between 1971 and 1972.

The vineyard, which faces predominantly south to west and partly north to east at 120 to 200 metres above sea level with a slope of 10 to 35%, covers 13 hectares of vines. The weathered shell limestone soil is interspersed with gravel, and in the lower area with deep loess loam and alluvial loam. The site is heterogeneous and open to the wind. Müller-Thurgau, Riesling, Silvaner, Pinot Gris and Blauer Portugieser are cultivated here. The Kloster Pforta and Lützkendorf wineries have shares in the site.
