Specialised

Overwhelmingly WHITE, on shell-limestone and marl: RIVANER (Müller-Thurgau) historically the bulk, with AUXERROIS — which is unusually important here and barely grown elsewhere — PINOT GRIS, PINOT BLANC, RIESLING, ELBLING on the oldest terraces, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot Noir for red and rosé. The Marque Nationale from 1935 and a modern appellation system. ⚠ THE SAME RIVER, THREE COUNTRIES, THREE WINE TRADITIONS: German Mosel, French Moselle and Luxembourg Moselle are distinct and are not merged.
