Grosse Lage refers to a specific classification in the German wine quality system, particularly in the Mosel and Rheinhessen regions. It denotes a high-quality vineyard site known for producing exceptional wines, primarily from the Riesling grape. The term translates to "great site" and indicates that the grapes grown here benefit from optimal conditions, such as soil quality and climate. Wines from a Grosse Lage are typically characterized by their complexity and depth of flavor. They are often made with strict regulations, ensuring that only the best grapes are harvested. This classification is part of the broader Prädikatswein system, which helps consumers identify premium wines in Germany.
