single vineyard in the municipality of Ahrweiler in the German wine-growing region of Ahr. The Forstberg vineyard borders to the east and the Silberberg vineyard to the west. The name either goes back to a former planting of wild roses or is derived from "Runst" (running water), which refers to a spring that was once located there. The steep, south-west to south-east facing vineyards at 110 to 180 metres above sea level cover 50 hectares of vines.
The soils consist of greywacke in the eastern part and loam, loess and loess-loam in the western part. Pinot Noir, Blauer Portugieser, Frühburgunder, Dornfelder, Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris), Müller-Thurgau and Riesling are cultivated here. Members of the Ahrweiler Winzer-Verein eG and Ahr Winzer eG, as well as the wineries Adeneuer, Bertram-Baltes, Heiner & Kreuzberg, Jean Stodden, Kreuzberg, Kriechel Peter, Lingen Peter, Maibachfarm, Max Schell, Sermann-Kreuzberg and Weingut Sonnenberg have shares in the vineyard.
