a reminder of the gates dark past. nowadays the wind gauge belongs to a vintner association and set up a wine shop and restaurant here. if i've learned one thing on my travels it's that wine regions are always home to extremely sociable people along the german wine or out there are a couple of places that have a legendary reputation in that sense here are a couple of recommendations for you. in the. us they're all the wine festivals more than 200 take place in the props and that's between april and november 1 of the best known as the german wine harvest festival in noise stopped in october because floats lots of music. and even more wine. bottle kinds of food. 1st mocked is

a balanced meet hot potato is always in it and margarine that's very important. my book is all have their own secret recipe and as for seasonings omar i mean. it's all modern to find out you know when you and you produce the wine to match can now get some actually drinking out of its time you know i mean it's a variety that's typical of what. has one of the world's oldest we know it's over 400 years old and of course it's stamped with the word stymie divines me to really think it's coming or be when bush stooped. seems i'm not the only one to enjoy it time for another round. delicious these people really know how to and dolls and to celebrate around these parts even political activism can turn into a funk together a great example for that is what happened at hamburg castle in $1832.00 it became

the birthplace of the german movement for the marcos when it hosted a festival. castle is where the national black red and gold flag was hoisted for the 1st time in german history. in late may have 1832 it was carried up to the castle during the famous protest known as the humble festival. the original is still here even though its colors have faded. what would be after this is the 1st black red and gold flak which was carried at the humber festival in $1832.00 bam at the time it wasn't the german flag and germany as such didn't exist yet although people were demanding a federation so to describe the fantagraphics came from the fact represented the

fight for freedom of opinion and right of press democracy and german unity he was carried up to hama castle in the long procession and then raised on the tower to symbolize liberty of. 30000 people followed the call to troop up to the castle since political rallies were forbidden the people did the only thing they could they turned their protest into a festival with stalls music and carousels. you know if some schloss onwards and upwards to the castle that's also the name of a permanent exhibition here the hump castle foundation takes as its theme the events associated with the festival. school classes and tourists from around the world the exhibition attracts $90000.00 visitors a year it's an interactive experience on the history and origins of the democracy

movement in germany. for a long time the castle was a ruin and then it reopened in 2008 restored and with an award winning modern extension. it's now become a major attraction along the wind route. i'm still in the hole here too there's a fortified castle. now i want to check out green board castle it's 535 meters above sea level but it'll only take me 8 minutes to get up there. next. to. me if. the.

time now to leave the whole admin for a quick trip to the caribbean this week need a local takes us all the way to colombia that's where we're going to me. our viewer mad. that he's going to show us around his home town. hello my name is marty moore your gomez welcome to beautiful country colombia. the city is unique because of the many flowers in the colonial style houses with.

which have been preserved for centuries and then you have the variety of colors here. and. i spend my days on the streets of cotton you know with my book barrow that they i'm a bit like a library only had been you swipe at the i'm always looking for. literature lovers so enjoy reading in these beautiful surroundings. it's interesting. because i think the historical center of cotton was fascinated me most of all have. there's a story behind every song i do with all this color and history it's a unesco world heritage site but you want. to.

note that this is holy trinity square and they get some money distract. the. district where daily life is relaxed the children play on the square as a grandmother sit outside in the afternoon their way out of people play dominoes and listen to music that. you're going to get some money off of is popular culture and caribbean is flat. and the prices are affordable that. i. can look at i live with them if i want to enjoy a good meal i go to a dollar in this restaurant you can sample the best of caribbean cuisine such as coconut rice and crispy pattern fried plantain it's that no.

town's entire center is classified as a historical monument. there's one where i come across again and again. let's check one out and i'm not the only one looking for a little gray this place looks are really cozy. and the south koreans ok that was way too much for me why don't you sit down with me for a bit. i have. done with and as well as what jerry. sandusky says this is a very nice place you have here that i was now in front of the door it says you're a bit soft what exactly does that mean. send. it. off as a business run by a wine grow and wine as. the wine taverns are only open at certain times of the

year. people. used to hang up a bunch of flowers or great vines to mark when they were open even 20 years ago it's you now they hang out signs on to suddenly it's a good was. it happened time i think i've seen people who don't drink their wine from wine glasses behind glasses what's that about. famine of the soil and i know what it's supposed to be drunk in a group and cast around the table this but many customers misunderstand it and drink it all by themselves that are surprised when they get tipsy and. worse still nibbling while our neighbors slowly but surely get the party started it . never going to go out on a limb and say that the mood in the room might be slightly wine and hands.

yes. drinking and driving is not a good combination at all if you want to get to know the landscape the town and the wine makers why not go on foot following the face of buying steak hiking trail. the floats a vine stagger collaton at one trail runs parallel to the wind a bit from 172 kilometers. of course a hiking trail that has the word wind in its name has to pass through towns associated with the great. the spire town of dirk kuyt boasts a giant wine bar that houses a restaurant it's. going to start on the wine but it is also with the hiking trail.

so i was home by. cus. then it's up to the summit of the cone it the 2nd highest peak of the pullout and it's a 673 meters. on pasta lots of consuls uphill and downhill. to. one of the most imposing rooms as mockingbird castle. did to her was a fantastic view. now

we're on our way to our last stop for a day the fair game winery close to london. everything under one roof all very modern with a big production plant and a wine bar with a lovely outdoor terrace. dick fergie shows me the tanks that hold this year's wine. i mean here we have a good boy it's time enough you can see the yeast. kind of man is it ready to drink you can drink it you can smell it too historically smells really fresh and aromatic market. in the fall at night lime growing is still very much a family affair really inherited the vineyard from his father 18 years ago.

evergreen i think this is the stunning property really sets of self apart from the rest of the region the modern design immediately catches the eye why did you go for this kind of style. that i bought with one growing is changing with regard we've looked to the rest of the world or people want to go out to the vineyards to enjoy the countryside through and. they prefer bright light to old time rustic and. it's more fun to taste wine in a bright room and make it in these beautiful surroundings that would be. launched off you know should people but then what are the challenges for a modern wine grower to clean up under climate change years were all very different . lots of change we've had everything fine weather high humidity late frosts of the spring and frosts and lots of precipitation of extreme weather and we have to react specifically to that that's the challenge to deal with every year so that

the grapes flourish and ripen well last month and so what makes for a good year which factors have to come together to achieve an exceptionally good wine. like healthy this is the good of all that's a good question but it's basically the whole year has to be right for the rain the sun doing the work at the right time whether it's telling the soil pruning the vines or picking the grapes you have to have a real knack for doing the right thing at the right time and we think that if we think it's a 2.4 night i feel like the only right thing we can do right now is try a glass of your wine if it was good than that let's go. well. you have the mind of the sling do we have the king of the white wine varieties in germany before let's start with that. why was i said why you never a sling the king of whites wind of the germans love their riesling so much. the

sling grapes grow better in germany than anywhere else in the west they develop the best a roman the best flavors one of those you know. so what does it smell like ok. mileva. he's looking at me like i'm completely wrong here is h h yes or. no my name is i once read you need to smile at least 3 things in a wine before trying it but that's proving rather difficult with my rookie knows. i've detected something else. honey could that be. a point for me if i want to go on your way to becoming a pro. practice makes perfect exactly it takes a lot of practice and that's what we're going to do practice some more.

next up is our e-mail this time our viewers video reaches us all the way from sri lanka enjoy. the.
