 Germany's 13 regions for quality wine

German wine regions are classified according to the quality category of the wine grown therein: Tafelwein, Landwein, Qualitätswein bestimmter Anbaugebiete (QbA) and Prädikatswein. The wine regions allowed to produce QbA and Prädikatswein are further subdivided into four categories according to size: Anbaugebiet (a major wine region), Bereich (a district within the wine region), Großlage (a collection of vineyards within a district) and Einzellage (a single vineyard).[1] A small number of Einzellagen do not belong to a Großlage and are called "großlagenfrei", but all belong to a Bereich and Anbaugebiet.

The 13 major wine regions ( Anbaugebiete) are Ahr "Ahr (wine region)"), Baden "Baden (wine region)"), Franconia "Franconia (wine region)"), Hessische Bergstraße, Mittelrhein "Mittelrhein (wine region)"), Mosel, Nahe "Nahe (wine region)"), Palatinate "Palatinate (wine region)"), Rheingau "Rheingau (wine region)"), Rheinhessen "Rheinhessen (wine region)"), Saale-Unstrut, Saxony "Saxony (wine region)"), and Württemberg "Württemberg (wine region)"). With the exceptions of Saxony and Saale-Unstrut, most of Germany's major wine regions are located in the western part of the country.
