At least 85 % of grapes from the area, the rest from Germany; production must take place in Baden-Württemberg or a neighbouring state. Section 3.1 mentions 'Taubertäler Landwein', apparently a drafting slip. Sweetness terms trocken to süß allowed. Cold concentration prohibited; Sweetening is allowed only with German grape must. Federweißer (partially fermented grape must, at least 85 % from the area) is also covered and must meet the Landwein production conditions; the analytical limits are given for wine only.
