Volcanic weathered soils on steep slopes and loess soil in picturesque terraced landscapes form the unique cultural landscape of the Kaiserstuhl. The Tuniberg, often called the little brother of the Kaiserstuhl, is a neighbouring small limestone elevation. Here you will also find the warmest climate in Germany. The terraces give the Kaiserstuhl its distinctive appearance today. The wines from the Kaiserstuhl and Tuniberg enjoy an excellent international reputation. More than half of the vineyard area consists of Burgundy vines. Burgundy wines, with their full-bodied, mineral and powerful character, are much sought after. In addition to Burgundy, Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner are grown, as well as other grape varieties, e.g. Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay.

Kaiserstuhl and Tuniberg together have about 5,300 ha of vineyards and thus account for about one third of the total winegrowing area in Baden. Baden wine occupies a leading position in Germany. The wine region of Kaiserstuhl and Tuniberg belongs to the wine-growing area"Baden - the Garden of Germany" and is marketed according to the slogan "spoiled by the sun". Well-known single vineyards are, for example, the Ihringer Winklerberg, the Achkarrer Schlossberg, the Käsleberg in Oberrotweil and the Baßgeige in Oberbergen.
