The Vine and the Rose

· 8 Comments ·

There is this small vinyard, eight rows in all, wedged between a barn and a residential area, barely 200m from our house. Each row of vine is of a different grape, and at the end of each row a different rose tree is planted. Some of them still carry blooms this late in the year.

Wine Princess

· 5 Comments ·

The German Wine Queen represents the German wine industry for a year. The different wine growing areas have princesses who represent their territories. Thanks to COVID Franziska Etsch’s reign for the Badische Bergstraße has been a few years more than she expected. Her poster is still up and looking over the local vinyards although I believe her crown has now been passed to a new dignitary.
