Nahe
	The Nahe region is named after the river that traverses the valleys of the forested Hunsrück Hills as it gently flows toward Bingen on the Rhine. The region is locatedsouth of the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer region and west of Rheinhessen. Unlike many other regions, this wine region is broken down into many small patches, located on or near the riverbanks of the Nahe and its main tributaries Alsenz and Glan, perhaps a mirror of the many different soil types found in this area. It is a peaceful landscape of vineyards, orchards and meadows interspersed with cliffs and striking geological formations. Although the Nahe is one of the smaller German wine regions, its extraordinary range of soil types is second to none. The entire rock cycle of igneous (volcanic), sedimentary (sandstone, clay, limestone) and metamorphic (slate) rocks is present in the Nahe. For this reason, the region is able to produce quite diverse wines from relatively few grape varieties. Riesling is here too the main grape variety covering about 25 % of the vineyards. The steeper sites of volcanic or weathered stone, and those with red, clayish slate seem predestined for elegant, piquant Riesling wines of great finesse and a light spiciness, while flatter sites of loam, loess and sandy soils yield lighter, fragrant Müller-Thurgau (Rivaner) wines with a flowery note. The Silvaner grape thrives in a number of soils and produces full-bodied, earthy wines. Wine was cultivated here already by the Romans. For many years the area was treated as part of the ‘Rheinwein’, only since 1971 is it defined as a wine region on its own. A focus point of the Nahe region is the 202 m high rock formation ‘Rote Wand’, the highest rock face north of the Alps. The major town on the Rahe region is Bad Kreutznach, famous for its roots going back to celtic and roman times. For the wine lover who also likes to enjoy spa's and wellnes, Bad Kreuznach offers a mutitude of bathes, roman and moorish steambathes, turkish haman's, a scheherezade bath and finnish sauna's. Other cities worth to visit are Bad Münster am Stein (near the rock face Rote Wand) and Idar-Oberstein, near the beginning of the Nahe valley, famous for its diamant industry (mines, cutting) and the Deutsche Edelstein Museum (famous German Diamant Museum).
