Our beautiful view at dinner. Vineyards occupy almost every slope in the area.
I’m looking forward to listening to the podcast, but haven’t had time yet.
But the river is Nahe, not Naha.
Thanks for the heads up. It is fixed!
My husband listened to all the podcasts on the German Riesling trip as we are very interested in going there ourselves. You mentioned a book, “Riesling”, which I have tried to find, but so far have only found “Riesling Renaissance” by Mitchell Beazley Drink. Can you give any more information about the book? Thanks.
