From just south of the ancient Roman city of Trier, north to Koblenz, where it empties into the Rhine, the Mosel River snakes its way past dramatically steep, slaty slopes covered with some of the most famous German vineyards like Bernkastel, Piesport. Wehlen etc.
The Mosel wines grow in "Mosel-typical" slate-soil. This has a special advantage: It stores the heat of the sun during the day time and gives it back to the vines at night. By this it stimulates the growth in a natural way. Harmonious climate, like warm summers and mild winters are typical for the Mosel area. Mosel wines are mostly pale in colour, light bodied with a lively, delicate fruity acidity.
Piesporter Michelsberg is a very well known vineyard all over the world. This wine is growing on slate-soil, which is typical for the Mosel area. The fruity acidity, rather than alcohol, is the backbone of these wines and enhance the longevity.
