Prince Lowenstein's Wine Cellar

A huge candlelit wine cellar in Franconia, Germany



Dear Imaginary Friends,
Carlo and I took a side trip to hang out at Prince Lowenstein's castle, and drink his excellent wines. We liked the Silvaner Kabinett Dry. It is a 2009 Thungersheimer Scharlachberg. Hard to request that mouthful at a bar.

Most German wines are dry Rieslings.  They were excellent: clean  and crisp.

Living the life!

Your Imaginary Wine Taster Friend,
Patsie
