Following the
Sekt Cellar Tour, Vineyard Tour and Tasting in the Vineyard at Weingut Laquai in Lorch, Rheingau, with Gundolf Laquai - Germany-North Tour 2019 by ombiasy WineTours: Quintessential Riesling
we left the Rheingau Region and drove to the Mittelrhein Region, where our first stop was Bacharach for lunch and for a visit of Weingut Ratzenberger.
The short journey to Bacharach involved a ferry ride across the Rhine river. There is no bridge across the Rhine river for some 70 miles between Mainz and Koblenz to not destroy the beauty of the Rhine valley.
Lunch at Restaurant Altes Haus in Bacharach
Bacharach is an incredibly beautiful, romantic 1000 year old wine village. Its castles, church spires, medieval city wall, and half-timbered houses on the shore of the Rhine rive is pure “Rheinromantik”. This is also the home town of Michael Thonet, the famous designer of the “cult” chairs, still in vogue today.
Weingut Ratzenberger
Following lunch, we stayed in Bacharach and visited Weingut Ratzenberger. Owner/ Winemaker Jochen Ratzenberger was our host. (See separate posting).
