OENOSPHÈRE

Immerse yourself in the Fitz-Ritter underworld and explore the history of our house and the wines. Past our bottle storage and the air-raid shelter in which hundreds of Bad Dürkheim citizens found shelter during World War II , the path leads you deeper and deeper into the Oenosphère and gives you fascinating insights into the depths of our 1785  sandstone vault.

 

Your path will lead you through the large wooden barrel cellar, past our wine treasury and the sparkling wine museum, which illuminates the history of our own oldest sparkling wine cellar in the Palatinate .

 

The path  ends in the transition to our stainless steel tanks and takes you back to our tasing room. From there if the weather is nice you can take a tour through our estate park, awarded as the most beautiful garden on the German Wine Road, and explore our vineyards in the different vegetation phases. In our Vinothek you can taste our wines and sparkling wines in a plasant atmosphere.
