Germany ~ Rüdesheim, Rheingau ~

Finally, we arrived at Rudesheim where is the last place of our plan.  Rudesheim is historical and tourist place registered as a world heritage.  Firstly, we visited Georg Breuer ( http://www.georg-breuer.com/ ) and tasted 8 kinds of wines at the underground tasting place.  1) 2010 GB Rouge 2) 2009 Spatburgunder 3) 2010 GB Sauvage 4) 2009 Rudesheim Estate 5) 2009 Rauenthal Estate 6) 2009 Terra Montosa 7) 2009 Nonnenberg 8) 2009 Berg Schlossberg.  After tasting, we visited their brewery.

Secondly, we visited Kloster Eberbach which ( http://kloster-eberbach.de/ ) was founded in 1136 by St.Bernhard of Clairvaux.  Their abbey, vineyard and brewery was so sophisticated and huge.  The abbey was locale of the film in name of Le Nom de la Rose, played by Sean Connery.  In 2003, this winery established the private company to make a profit.  We tasted 7 kinds of wine there, and visited their latest modern brewery which I have never seen.  They explained the facility is gentle for workers at underground, because workers can get the sun light.  The winery also mentioned that the sun light are calculated not to damage on wine..












The last of the day, I could meet a wonderful wine which are made by Eva Fricke( http://www.evafricke.com/evaFricke_en.html ) at the Koetherhof in Kiedrich.  Unfortunately, I could not visit her winery, but I felt her character and passion, feminine and sturdy effected on her wines.

Thank you for your reading to the end.
