Wine growing in Eisingen has a long tradition; the first documented mention dates back to 1351 (foundation deed of Lichtenthal Monastery). Until the end of the 19th century, wine was a significant source of income for the Eisinger winemakers. Today it's more like "after-work winegrowers" who tend the vines here.
