Wine production in Mainz dates back to Roman times and makes the city a major hub for German's winemaking industry. The Great Wine Capitals Global Network (GWC) recognized this in 2008, when they selected Mainz as a member of their distinguished association. The same year saw many wine merchants set up shop in the city, therefore, there is no doubt the city and its surroundings offer a plethora of wineries.
