Bermersheimer Hildegardisberg

Hildegardis Way in Bermersheim 
Birthplace of a saint and fantastic wines 

She was the tenth child of the nobleman Hildebert of Bermersheim and his wife Mechthild. In 1098 Hildegard (presumably) saw the light of day in Bermersheim. She founded a monastery on the Rupertsberg near Bingen and was considered a great mystic of the Middle Ages. Without a doubt, this site is dedicated to her. On marl and loess soil, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay thrive quite fantastically.
