German
wine differs from wines of other countries — it's light, lively and
fruity, thanks to Germany's unique climatic and geological conditions.
With the exception of Saale-Unstrut and Sachsen in the east, the
wine-growing regions are concentrated in the south and southwestern part
of Germany. They are among the most northerly wine regions in the world
and straddle the border between the humid Gulf Stream climate of the west
and the dry Continental climate of the east. The long growing season and
moderate summer temperatures bring forth filigree wines that are
relatively low in alcohol. The diversity of German wine stems from the
many soil types and grape varieties — there is no "uniform" type or style
of German wine — and this diversity is reflected in Germany's 13
wine-growing regions.
