The Nahe is a relatively small river - but wines of undeniable greatness grow on its banks: Riesling dominates in Monzingen, on the upper course of the river, in the middle Nahe valley near Schlossböckelheim, Niederhausen and Norheim, and on the lower course of the river near Wallhausen, Sarmsheim and Dorsheim. Different coloured slate give it minerality and complex aromas, whether dry, fruity or noble sweet. In other places, there are also soils on quartzite, on Rotliegend, as well as on volcanic rocks. In addition to Riesling, Burgundian varieties also have a certain spread here. The Nahe is rightly considered a wine growing region full of discoveries. There is no shortage of talent here, just as there is no shortage of true bargains.
