General term (also vineyard, Weingarten, Wengert, Wingert and many others) for an area planted with vines, possibly not further defined. This is also used in a romanticising way, because it does not necessarily have to be an elevation (mountain, hill). See attractive vineyards under highest vineyard and steepest vineyard as well as a complete list of relevant keywords under vineyard area.

I have great respect for the scope and quality of the wein.plus encyclopaedia. It is a unique place to go for crisp, sound information on terms from the world of wine.
