Viticulture
The Britzingen wine cooperative , which manages the Muggardter Berg, broke new ground at the beginning of the 21st century to stop the increasing decline of the steep slope . It acquired through a land consolidation process an area of one hectare of Muggardter mountain, the wine legally on the situation Britzinger Sun Hollow counts and leased the Rebstücke to two members. The amount of work in the steep, non-navigable vineyards had become too great and uneconomical, so the decision was made to create transverse terraces on shallow, weathered limestone soil . They were completely replanted with Pinot Noir vines in spring 2004 . The aim was to produce a quality red wine in this south-facing location, which is rather rare for the Markgräflerland. The first vintage of this wine was pressed in 2006 .
