Focus on the Current Vintage

This gives visitors the opportunity to taste the still-young wines side-by-side, chat with the producers, and gain insights into the vintage's typical character. Typically, Rieslings, Müller-Thurgau, Silvaner, white and Pinot Gris, as well as Rosé and red wines, are featured.
