Glossary entry (derived from question below)
German term or phrase:
Kulturlandschaft
English translation:
cultivated environment , terroir of the environment
German term
Kulturlandschaft
This is in the section about the actual vineyards so I presume it is the "agricultural" meaning of "Kultur" ??
Wo unsere Weine wachsen
Bei unserem naturnahen Weinanbau gehen wir sehr
sorgsam mit den Ressourcen um und bewahren unsere
Kulturlandschaft. Unter der Oberfläche liegen die
Fundamente für tiefwurzelnde, kräftige und resistente
Rebstöcke. Bewusst begrenzen wir aus Qualitätsgründen
den Ertrag und achten durch Begrünung auf ein optimales
Bodenmanagement. Unsere Weinberge sind maßgebend
für Stilistik und Qualität, so dass selbst feinste Nuancen
des Terroirs später im Glas zu erkennen sind.....
Again, I'd be very grateful for ideas from wine loving colleagues!

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

: I'd beg to differ. A Kulturlandschaft is more a cultivated landscape than anything cultural.

the terroir of our region
https://winestatistics.com/2018/11/05/alpha-estate-ecosystem...
Terroir (/tɛˈrwɑːr/, French: [tɛʁwaʁ]; from terre, "land") is the set of all environmental factors that affect a crop's phenotype, including unique environment contexts, farming practices and a crop's specific growth habitat. Collectively, these contextual characteristics are said to have a character; terroir also refers to this character.[1]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terroir
Not 'cultural' here. That's about orchestras, theatres, architecture and the like.

Where a suggestion "fits quite well but it is already in the same paragraph" (i.e. of this specific context), wouldn't it make sense to include it in the glossary entry?
Thankyou, Lancashireman. Terroir does indeed fit quite well, but it is already in the same paragraph. |
Thanks for your comments. I'll see if I can adapt the glossary entry. |

Kudoz glossary now includes 'terroir of the environment' (sic).
