I'm glad I bought a whole box of it a few weeks ago, as it's now out of stock at my wine shop. Our favourite French red, Carignan, when well done, has an incomparable flavour.

I think this picture is taken from inside the Rathaus. I played my trumpet on the steps of the Rathaus for a Christmas performance a few times back in the early 1980s.

mikeweil Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) Very nice! That must be shot from a window in an upper floor of the city hall. The winery we visited had its stand round the corner on the left. You stayed in Wiesbaden for a while?

Aggie87 Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) I lived in Wiesbaden for four years, and my parents lived there for twelve years, so I continued visiting them a couple of times per year even after I'd moved. Later I lived in Stuttgart as well, and my son was born there. If the cards line up properly I may live in Germany again some day, I love it there.
