Walporzheim, Alte Lay mit Bunte Kuh

Be aware: This hike is guided in German.

Kissed by the wood? During this hike through the top vineyards of Ahrweiler and Walporzheim, you will taste wines aged in wood, outdoors. But what does wood mean?

Recognise the sensory differences, perceive the organoleptic nuances of wines matured in barriques, as well as the storage and maturation in large old wood or young barrels, e.g. from Ahreiche. Highly exciting. In between, a stowaway, a Spätburgunder, refined, fully matured in steel. An exciting excursion into the world of exquisite great Burgundy wines, white and red, from the Ahr.

Be aware: This hike is guided in German.
