As a part of our Vantage River Cruise, we were treated to a wine tasting in the former Prince Bishop's Court Cellar after we had completed our tour of the Wurzburg Residenz. The State Hofkeller Würzburg is the third largest vineyard in Germany and has...an annual production of approximately 850,000 bottles.We were lead through a long corridor lit by candles (a custom from ancient times to test the oxygen content of the basement air) and barrels into a room with long tables set with wine glasses and baskets of delightful bread (again surrounded by candles and barrels). The wine sommelier explained the 4 white wines during the tasting: 2016 Wurzburger Muller-Thurgau trocken, 2016 Wurzburger Innere Leiste Silvaner trocken, 2015 Wurzburger Stein Riesling trocken, and a 2015 Randersackerer Marsberg Riesling Auslese. After the tasting we were able to purchase wine in the cellar.More
