Württemberg wine region

Württemberg's vineyards line the slopes of the Neckar River and its tributaries.

Stuttgart is its major city (Audi, Porsche & Mercedes cars come from this region). With nearly half of its vineyards planted in red varieties, wine region Württemberg is the largest red wine region in Germany. Trollinger, Müllerrebe (Pinot meunier), Spätburgunder (Pinot noir), Portugieser and Lemberger make very fruity red wines. Württemberg's white wines - Riesling, Müller-Thurgau, Kerner and Silvaner - have a vigorous, hearty taste.

Württemberg wines can rarely be found outside this region, as the majority are consumed by the indigenious population.
