Alsheimer Fischerpfad (Fisherman’s path of Albig)

The smallest and possibly most idyllic single vineyard in Alsheim.

The vineyard was first mentioned in a document in 1720 under the name "im Fischerpfadt". The single vineyard is about five kilometres away from the river Rhein. Fishermen once took this route, coming from the village of Wintersheim. The single vineyard is the smallest, but possibly the most idyllic in Alsheim. It is located directly by the district of Hangen-Wahlheim - with only ten houses, old trees and the remains of an old church for Maria Magdalena. The table of wine invites you to a picnic with a panoramic view of the Rhine valley. The vineyards are characterised by deep loess soil. Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and other grape varieties grow here.
