WeinWandern Trittenheim (Autumn)

Two Dates in the Golden Moselle Autumn

WeinWandern Trittenheim is the autumn format with which the Tourist Information highlights the Middle Moselle region. In 2026, there are two dates on the calendar: September 12, when the grape harvest in the steep slopes has usually just begun, and October 31, when the autumn foliage bathes the vineyards in golden hues. Both dates offer different perspectives on the harvest, the microclimate, and Trittenheim's prime vineyard sites.

Route and Stations

The tour is 6 kilometers long and leads through the steep slopes of the Trittenheim Moselle loop — via side paths up to the high trail, with panoramic views of the village and the Moselle river, and back through the village center. At four to five stations, Trittenheim vintners will pour their Rieslings. The selection includes dry estate wines, village wines, single-vineyard wines from Altärchen, Apotheke, and Leiterchen, as well as occasional noble sweet late harvests and sparkling wine.

Culinary Delights to Complement the Wine

The tastings are combined with small culinary snacks. Depending on the station, these can be seasonal breads with spreads, regional sausage and cheese specialties, or small warm dishes. The culinary offerings are coordinated with the Trittenheim vintners to match the wines being poured — a small taste of the food pairing trend that is increasingly shaping the Moselle region.

Explanations and Atmosphere

The local guide will explain the location, soil, microclimate, and vintage at each station. This creates a common thread that links the wine with the landscape. For first-time visitors to the Moselle, WeinWandern is an ideal introduction to the world of Moselle Rieslings; for enthusiasts, the tour opens up new perspectives on Trittenheim's vineyard structure.
