Castles and wine
2009.07.30
We went to Cochem by the Mosel for the day, very overrun by (Dutch!!) tourists, but pretty nevertheless. It had a pretty castle up the hill surrounded by vinyards.
|
By the castle they had falcons, they were lovely and big!
|
View by the castle across the Mosel river.
|
Fona took us to Weingut Geelen where we (obviously) tasted the wines!! Great view and food too!!
|
Yay, tasting wines!!

I remember going there whilst on a schoolexchange trip...wasn't so sunny though. The Mosel is a pretty area.

that castle on the hill and the river are so picturesque. Love the falcons. C'mon phona, it's like we're surprised to see you double-fisting.

I think the way you were drinking in #4 is entirely sensible.

Mmmmmmm wine! Well, who doesn't want to ingest large quantities of wine quickly?! That first picture is just stunning.

#4 was obviously a taste comparison. No problem at all.

Lovely pictures, makes me "homesick"!! the last time I was in Cochem it was early autumn and time for "Federweisser" (the sweet yeasty first pressing white wine - deadly stuff!) and "Zwiebelkuchen" (onion tart). Summer looks just as lovely!
