In fact until recently wine production was the city’s main
source of income.
That’s why
it is simply a must to get to know Iphofen’s viticulture.
Admittedly in order to understand our wine in all its diversity
it is necessary
to cover a lot of ground.
How did the first grapevine come to Franconia?
Which role has viticulture played in the history of the region and the
city?
Which varieties of grapes are grown in the vineyards
and which types of wines do they later become?
How does this process work? What is the correct way
to
prune a grapevine to obtain the highest-quality grapes?
How does geology fit into the picture
and what happened millions of years ago in the
German Triassic Basin?
I will be glad to answer all these questions and many more while we are
walking through the vineyards.
The guided tour can be adapted to your individual needs.
I would recommend spending, at minimum,
two hours of your time in the vineyards.
It’s also possible to arrange for a snack consisting of bread
and cold cuts, provided by a local supplier.
Of course this snack
includes wine because…
“Nothing
makes you more familiar with the landscape
than the enjoyment of the wines which are grown on its soil
and which are illuminated by its sun.”
Ernst
Jünger (German Philosopher)
Duration: According to your needs - 2 to 4 hours

the
above-mentioned snack and wine)
