This should be your first stop on any wine trip to the Mosel. Staff are helpful, it's centrally located, plenty of information and 140 local wines open for you to get you bearings on the local area and styles. For a small fee you get a glass, a numbered list then it is off downstairs in the cellar to pour yourself whatever interests you. You can also order cheese plates to take along on your little wine tasting journey if you want.It is the best way to get a quick overview, especially if limited for time. There is a cafe upstairs and I heard the museum is pretty good although I didn't go myself.
This was wonderful. A cool cellar populated by hundreds of Rieslings, and a few Spatburgunders and even a Rotling. We loved the way you could just wander at your own pace, taste anything you liked, and drink all the water you wanted as well as tasting the wines. there was a history of all the producers on the walls. I loved also how you could buy any of the wines you liked. We will definitely visit it again. Way too many wines to taste in one trip. Sehr Shoen und Wonderbar.
Came here at the end of our day visiting Bernkastel with our group from an Avalon river tour. We got our wine glass and pretzel and were given run of the cellar to taste all the wines we wanted. Everyone seemed to enjoy the visit and we left with a bottle to share later. It was great!
We went here in low season so it was nice and calm. We spend 1u30 inside since there were so many wines to taste and the ones with numbers 116, 117 and 102 were amazing! We only had to pay 12 euro because instead of 140 wines only 110 were available. Great place!
We got a good start with this tasting cellar. The selection of wines was good- and we had a taste of quite a few.
This is a perfect location for a wine tasting of more than 100 wines from the Moselle valley. After paying the admission of EUR 18 you can walk around the cellar and taste all wines on your own. Some wines can only be tasted upstairs at the bar, as they are too expensive to be made available in the cellar. There is a short description for each wine on a board. Can totally recommend this place.
In the cellar of the Vinotek in the grounds of the Saint Nikolaus Hospital you can taste 150 wines from the Mosel Valley for 18€. A bargain. There is sparkling and red wine in addition to the white which is the speciality of the region. Each wine has some information (only in German I am afraid) and you are issued with a sheet on which you can record your impressions. Should you wish to buy the wine it is available for purchase. We spent a very pleasant couple of hours on a chilly afternoon improving our knowledge of the region's prime export.
132 wines to taste! Huge cellar below very fine building.Just 18 euros!Close to the river in lovely surroundings
The most comprehensive offering of high level Mosel wines you will ever come across. At a cost of 20 euros you can sample over 100 outstanding wines. Small producers, legendary wine makers: it's all there. Charming, very professional welcome will make you feel "at home" immediately. If you want to discover what Mosel Riesling is all about or if you are a wine connoisseur your expectations will be surpassed.Each wine is given it's complete pedigree i.e. wine maker, vineyard, type of wine, alcohol level, residual sugar and acidity content.The ancient building, the pleasant court yard where food and wine are available completes the hedonistic experience.Is it what 'Wine Heaven' looks and tastes like? probably
Try and taste the wine before you go out to the wine producers. I recommend this as the first stop if you are interesting in wines in the Mosel Valley.
