Afterwards, we will mak a 20 minutes walk to a wonderful ruin in the vineyards.
In this beautiful scenery you will learn about the history of this ruin and also about the impressive landscape.
The walk will continue and we will make a time travel back to the times of primeval sea. With a little luck, you can find some teeth of a shark during this walk.
The walk will take around 30-45 minutes through the vineyards. You can ask all your questions and we will explain how we work outside.
Back in the winery, we will start the winetasting in our Vinothek (small groups) or our traditional "Weinstube" (more then 10 Persons).
