single vineyard in the municipality of Randersacker (Maindreieck area) in the German wine-growing region of Franconia. It is criss-crossed by numerous retaining walls, from which the name is derived. The site was first mentioned in a document in 1240 as "monte Rode adut Randersacker" (on Mount Rode near Randersacker). Today, it includes the formerly independent Hohes Roth, Paradies and Rückersell...
