Rheingau Wine Festival
The 12th Rheingau Wine Festival in Oberursel is being held between Friday 3rd August and Sunday 5th August 2012 on the Marktplatz.
Many of the vineyards at the festival will be familiar to those who have been before, as they have been coming for a number of years and often have their stands in the same place each year.
Visitors can expect to find selected Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) wines from towns such as Lorch, Hattenheim, Hochheim, Giesenheim, Erbach, Johannisberg and Oestrich-Winkel.
There will also be a variety of food on offer, including Flammkuchen (Tarte Flambee) and (Zwiebelkuchen) Onion cake.
The festival will be officially opened on Friday evening at 6.30pm.
The stands are open on Friday and Saturday from 5pm until 12.30am and on Sunday from 2pm until 11pm.
