Blauburgunder leads the plantings, with Acolon, Müller-Thurgau, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay alongside it.

The climate is continental.

The vineyards themselves read as hills, riverside and valley floor.

Red wine, white wine and rosé wine is what the region is known for, and in the glass it shows primarily made from pinot noir, limited production and refreshing with crisp acidity.

At the table these bottles work with beef dishes, game meats, rich pasta dishes and cheese platters.
