Weingrube

single vineyard in the municipality of Boppard in the German wine-growing region of the Middle Rhine. There was a documentary reference to "in der weingruben" as early as the 16th century. It is part of the Bopparder Hamm vineyard, which is also a district of Boppard of the same name. The site begins in the mountain incision through which the Petersbach stream flows and stretches at an altitude of 160 metres above the three vineyards Mandelstein, Feuerlay and Ohlenberg. The soils consist of different types of slate; above the Mandelstein, for example, this is a siliceous slate. The western section, which is considered to be better and has a slope grad ient of up to 50%, faces south-west. The rest, with a slope of 45%, faces south-west to south. The site is mainly used to cultivate Riesling. The Heilig Grab vineyard, for example, has a share.
