Viticulture
Today Tiefenstockheim is a wine-growing area in the Franconian wine-growing region . There is a large vineyard around the village, the wine has been marketed since the 1970s under the name Tiefenstockheimer Stiefel, which refers to the shape of the vineyards. Tiefenstockheim is part of the Schwanberger Land area, until 2017 the winemakers were grouped together in the Steigerwald area. The limestone soils around Tiefenstockheim are also suitable for growing wine, as is the location in the Maingau climate zone, which is one of the warmest in Germany.
The people around Tiefenstockheim have been viticulture since the early Middle Ages . The Franconian settlers probably brought the vine to the Main in the 7th century. In the Middle Ages, the region was part of the largest contiguous wine-growing region in the Holy Roman Empire. The people mostly operated part-time viticulture for self-sufficiency , at the same time export centers were already emerging, especially along the Main. In Tiefenstockheim, viticulture remained for domestic use.
Viticulture experienced a major decline after secularization at the beginning of the 19th century. Above all, locations with less favorable climatic conditions were completely abandoned. In addition, the emergence of pests such as phylloxera made cultivation difficult . The Franconian wine-growing region was not able to consolidate again until the second half of the 20th century. The use of fertilizers and improved cultivation methods had contributed to this, as had the organization in cooperatives and the land consolidation of the 1970s. Today, viticulture is again practiced to a limited extent in Tiefenstockheim.
