German to English: Extract from wine marketing brochure General field: Marketing Detailed field: Wine / Oenology / Viticulture
Source text - German Landschaft und Wein sind an Mosel, Saar und Ruwer untrennbar miteinander verbunden. Das Gebiet
wird seit fast 2000 Jahren vom Weinbau an den steilen Hängen der Flusstäler geprägt, die reiche
Weinkultur von der Antike bis heute ist überall erlebbar. Die geologischen Grundlagen für den
Weinbau reichen vielweiter zurück, bis ins Erdzeitalter des Devon vor rund 400 Millionen Jahren.
Diese Broschüre stellt die wichtigsten Gesteins- und Bodentypendes Weinanbaugebietes anhand von Bodenprofilen repräsentativerWeinlagen vor. Sie erläutert die Entstehung der Landschaft, das
Klima sowie vor allemdie Geologie derWeinbergsböden – und stellt den Zusammenhang zur Grundcharakteristik der hier erzeugten Weine dar. Damit gibt dieses Werk Winzern, Weinfachleuten und
Weinfreunden viele interessante und wertvolle Informationen, die dazu beitragen, das „Terroir an Mosel, Saar und Ruwer“ – diese besondere, nicht austauschbare Verbindung von Landschaft, Boden,
Klima, Rebsorten und Winzerhandwerk – besser zu verstehen und die hier erzeugten Weine mit ihrem einzigartigen Charakter noch intensiver zu genießen.
Translation - English Along the Mosel, Saar and Ruwer, wine and countryside are inextricably linked. For nearly 2,000 years, the area has been characterised by steep slope viticulture along the river valley. One can experience the rich wine culture, which has evolved throughout history to the present day. Geologically, the foundation for viticulture was laid in the Devonian Era, about 400 million years ago.
This brochure aims to give an overview of the most important rock and soil types of this wine-growing area using soil profiles of representative vineyard sites. It explains the creation of the landscape, the climate and, in particular, the soil geology of the vineyard to demonstrate the interrelation of the factors that determine the wines’ characteristics. We hope that this booklet, containing interesting and valuable information for vintners, the wine trade and wine lovers alike, will succeed in explaining the Mosel, Saar and Ruwer terroir - the unique culmination of landscape, soil, climate, vine and vintner skill - to further enhance the enjoyment of our wines and their exceptional character.

Source text - German Bischöfliches Priesterseminar Trier
Seit dem 7. Jahrhundert bestand an der trierischen Domkirche ein "oratorium St. Banti". Die reiche Stiftung, die "Bantuspräbende", wurde von einer Konfraternität verwaltet. Unter Johannes von Schönenberg
(1592) wurde aus der Bantusstiftung das "Seminar St. Banti". Der Zweck sollte sein: "Zu Ehren Gottes und zur Erhaltung der katholischen Religion nützliche Arbeiter für den Weinberg des Herrn heranzubilden."
Im Jahre 1773 erfogte durch Clemens Wenzeslaus (1768 bis 1794) die Gründung des Bischöflichen Priesterseminars. Ein neuer, bedeutsamer Abschnitt in der Geschichte des Priesterseminars begann 1950 mit der Wiedererrichtung der Theologischen Fakultät durch Papst Pius XII.
Der Weinbergsbesitz des Bischöflichen Priesterseminars stammt aus einer Donation des Kurfürsten Clemens Wenzeslaus aus dem Jahre 1773. Das Vermögen gehörte vordem dem Jesuitenstift. 1794 wurden die Güter
enteignet. Auf Fürsprache von Bischof Mannay erhielt das Bischöfliche Priestersemiar 1809 durch kaiserliches Dekret alle Kapitalien und Güter zurück.
Translation - English The ‘oratorium St. Banti’ in the Trier High Cathedral dates back to the 7th century. This wealthy foundation, the ‘Bantuspräbende’ was managed by a brotherhood. In 1592 Johannes von Schöneberg turned the Bantus foundation into the ‘St. Banti Seminar’. Its purpose was to educate useful workers for the Lord’s vineyards for the glory of God and the maintenance of the Catholic Religion.
In 1773 Clemens Wenzeslaus founded the Episcopal Seminary. A new more important section of its history began in 1950 when Pope Pius XII reinstated the Theology faculty.
The vineyard property of the Episcopal Seminary was a donation of Prince Elector Clemens Wenzeslaus in 1773, previously belonging to the Jesuit foundation. There followed a dispossession in 1794, however thanks to Bishop Mannay all property and capital was returned to the Episcopal Seminary in 1809 by an imperial decree.
