Hidden in the hills above the Moselle River is the mystical Burg Eltz. The castle is surrounded by the beautiful Eltz Forest and tucked away from the small town of Wierschem.
Lush green hills peppered with grape vines that boasts the most stunning views of German towns is the best way to enjoy the grape juice for adults — wine.
Winter is a spectacular time for a day trip to Cochem. Spend the day basking in the romance of a magnificent medieval castle while meandering through the cobblestoned streets in this charming town in the Moselle River Valley of Germany.
A LITTLE HISTORY
Christmas markets in Germany are a must for everyone to experience during the Advent season. While there are plenty of markets to choose from and many tourists flock to the big cities, they miss out on the treasures found within the smaller markets.
When I set out to decide what wine regions to capture, I truly had a difficult time. Europe is the most renowned continent for wine production after all. There are so many wine regions throughout Europe that offer their own history and types of wine.
From a sparkling champagne to a crisp Riesling or fruity Pinot Noir (Pinot Noir), you do not have to travel far to enjoy a wonderful wine from Germany.
From a sparkling Sekt to a crisp Riesling or fruity Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir), you don’t have to travel far to enjoy a wonderful wine from Germany. Appreciate the country's 2,000-year history of winemaking at these wine fests, open-cellar days and culinary events.
