FESTIVALS, FESTIVALS AND MORE FESTIVALS


There is never a lack of celebration in Germany, there is a festival for any conceivable holiday or event. I’ve been to a wine festival, a pig festival, a beer festival, a shooting festival and a Christmas festival.
A few of those festivals were near Spangdahlem with my friends Mark and Jan McClay and their daughter Kaylee. We even met up with Matt Wittnam, who you may remember from some Korea connections. Matt and I enjoyed a NICE bottle of Ice Wine at Bernkastle and even bought souvenir shot glasses you wear around your neck in a leather pouch.
This is Matt Wittnam, whose name you may recognize from Korea Connections. He is displaying a beautiful bottle of Spatlese, which means late harvest. That lets you know it is a sweet wine.
