At the heart of the range is Palatinate Riesling, from estate wines to Grosses Gew\u00e4chs, grown on coloured sandstone, limestone and basalt, alongside Weissburgunder, Sp\u00e4tburgunder,

Pi\u00f9 a sud, nella S\u00fcdpfalz intorno a Siebeldingen e Birkweiler, il paesaggio si fa pi\u00f9 frammentato e i vitigni della famiglia dei Pinot acquistano peso.<\/p><h2>Arenaria variegata, calcare e basalto: il Riesling del Palatinato secondo l'origine<\/h2><p>Ci\u00f2 che un <a href=\"\/it\/sorte\/riesling\/\">Riesling<\/a> del Palatinato esprime dipende molto dal suolo.
