Schlossberg (single vineyard Germany)

Common single-location name in Germany. It is usually derived from a manorial building (which may no longer exist) on the top of a hill.

Achkarren/Oberrotweil - Baden (Kaiserstuhl)

The upper part of this single vineyard below the Höhingen castle ruins was converted into vineyards in 1819 by blasting away the steep rock faces. The vineyards, which are aligned in the form of four amphitheatres facing west to south-east, but predominantly south, at an altitude of 190 to 320 metres above sea level with a slope of 20 to 80%, cover 80 hectares of vineyards. The very large and therefore heterogeneous site in terms of soil is divided into four areas: Böhmischberg, Büchsenberg, Schlossberg and Schneckenberg.
