“Vine and Wine” in Stuttgart, Germany
Stuttgart’s vineyards stretch right into the heart of the city, making Stuttgart the only German metropolis with its own municipal wine estate.
Wine has been grown here ever since Roman times. The wines owe their excellent quality to the first-class soil, the favorable climate, and the expertise that has accumulated over the centuries.
“GeWeinsam” – “together with wine” – is the motto of this year’s Stuttgart Wine Festival, to be held from August 30 to September 10, 2023, in the city center. The cozy wine booths are set up in the Schiller Square with around 30 hosts serving local wines, accompanied by Swabian specialities: Käsespätzle (cheesy noodles), Maultaschen (filled pasta), Schupfnudeln (potato noodles) with sauerkraut, and sweet treats.
Up-and-coming young wine growers – some in the third generation – will present their wines for the 47th year of the festival.
