The 
Ruwer Valley

The Ruwer Valley is a tributary of the Mosel. Here on the steep slate slopes incomparably light and mineral Riesling wines of great elegance and longevity are grown. Classic wines, famous around the world.

​

The first settlement of the Ruwer region dates back to 600 B.C. More than 2,000 years ago, the Romans were already cultivating wine in the Ruwer Valley. 

​

The Ruwer is part of the Mosel wine-growing region, comprising the three rivers of Mosel, Saar and Ruwer. The Ruwer Valley is the smallest valley of the three and produces the lightest wines of the three valleys - with the highest minerality - thanks to the dark slate soil and the coolest wine growing climate.
