What’s Happening:
🚜 Enjoy a rustic covered wagon show – a nod to the “Herbschdwächel” (harvest wagons) – where workers once gathered after a long day in the vineyards.
🔥 Warm up at the central vineyard bonfire, with roasted chestnuts and Swedish torches lighting the way.
🍇 Enjoy fresh “new wine” and mature vintages from the local vineyards, including the famous red wines of Heuchelheim-Klingen.
🍂 Experience the charm of outdoor seating around the wagons – no tents, but plenty of space under the autumn sky with good company and delicious wine.
