Germany - Anbaugebiete
Ok, so we have done the Anbaugebiete (Region), now lets look at the district inside the Anbaugebiete, which is called a Bereich. A Bereich is a district that consists of several communes.
Generally there are 1 or more of these within an Anbaugebeite and the Beriech name will generally always appear on the label.
If you are interested in more please see the list below

Germany - Anbaugebiete
In Germany there are two Quality Wine levels
There are 13 Quality Anbaugebeite (regions) in Germany. For a wine to be a QbA it must come from one of the 13 Anbaugebeite, blending from another Anbaugebeite (region) is forbidden.
Pradikatswein wines must come from one of the 13 Anbaugebeite (regions), but also this is a higher quality so must come from a single Bereich ( a district inside an Anbaugebeite (region))
