The Palatinate wine-growing region has many special features: a long tradition that goes back to the Romans, a unique unity, an outstanding market importance (every third bottle of German wine purchased in Germany comes from the Palatinate), a particularly mild climate and a considerable size: With almost 23,400 hectares, the Palatinate is the second largest German wine-growing region, which corresponds to around a quarter of the German wine-growing area. The Palatinate is the largest Riesling region in the world. The vineyards of the in-house Johannishof winery are cultivated in a natural way. You will find a variety of flowering plants and small animals in our landscaped areas. Mainly classic grape varieties such as Elbling and Burgundy varieties are grown around the idyllic village of Mesenich. Also Rivaner, Dornfelder and Cabernet Dorsa.
