river the city's known for these underground solar vaults. where are we what kind of cell is this half of the shia in iran one of the large selous of the underworld form a wine cellar unfortunately they no longer used to such today. there are cell is under the whole of tartan tub because at the end of the 20th century it was a huge wine trading center people said it was the 2nd largest wine trading center in europe after bordeaux in france. in the year 890 s. alone some 18000000 leases of wine made their way from here out into the big wide world. the 1st thing all visitors notice above ground is the breach gate on the muzzle at the beginning of the 19th century there was enough wealth here to commission the well

known berlin art nouveau architect we're moving he not only designed the bridge gate but also a number of villa. park noble architecture characterizes tom caught up to this day a great place to start my journey along the muzzle. today i want to find out why the muzzle is one of the most beautiful river scapes in germany so i'm off for right along a part of them was ill psychopath from top to call him but that's not all i'll also be finding out why muzzle wines are so special. for one thing wine growing on them as well dates back to roman times. but there are also other attractions in the area like the mediæval else castle.

and if you're from argentina will also show was around her hometown some that are failing. the nice thing about a bike path that runs along a river is that it's fairly flat at. as long as it is close to the water the muzzle belly also offers a lot of peter falkiner around us but for those you have to paddle a little harder. but it's worth taking the detour uphill here for example are the rules of cleaving book castle built in the 14th century it was repeatedly attacked destroyed and rebuilt until it was finally blown up in the 18th century from here i can get a fantastic view over that was over valley. there are many famous castles to germany but book if they're in jail or in the very well
5:34 am
and just outstanding in the literal sense is elf castle not far from here and we will show you what makes this castle so special and what the coronavirus restrictions mean for visitors and owners. ed castle towers over this side valley of the most l. one of the few castles that's never been destroyed it's been in the hands of the else family for close to 900 years. count and it's proud that his castle can normally cover most of its upkeep by welcoming tourists though this year revenue has dropped due to the corona crisis. so even more people to new that 900 years of history is at stake but let's put it this way over time one learns defend oneself and come up with a 1000 ways to master such

a situation. my son come due to social distancing and hygiene regulations they've moved the ticket booth outside this it is can only remain in the castle for 2 hours and no more than $120.00 guests can visit at any given time not taking a moment because we'd have to allow large numbers and say that once we can only do tours for 60 people it's a time most. people have been touring the castle since that we open to visitors in june but not as many are coming as before the coronavirus prices. the number of young people however is on the rise because it's council is considered one of the most instagram of book places in germany. having said that i'd estimate that between 15 and 20032 teams have been here if they stay
5:36 am
the night here for sure but 6 in the morning and sometimes 21 it was a real battles to get a full old castle left of i'm going to have to go. there. no longer holds a photographer but some are still coming they provide the council which relies primarily on entrance fees with the welcome publicity though both visitors and guides enjoy touring the castle in smaller groups and you really notice the difference normally we have 35 people in a group today we have 8 tarps that's nicer for the visitors they can move around more freely they see better but it still feels unusual. and it's castle can survive for a year with fewer visitors but should the restrictions last longer it may have to close its gate count intends to delay that for as long as possible.
5:37 am
biking along the muzzle i can definitely recommend it. most of the time you can ride along the water away from cars and streets for a natural landscapes or a small wine growing villages. such as prudent of each which has $800.00 inhabitants a lot of half timbered houses and as a special attraction an old ferry house from $1621.00. across the river there are grape vines as far as the eye can see. the moselle wine had a pretty good reputation for a long time unfortunately it suffered in the 2nd half of the 20th century because of mass production methods well in the meantime however the wine is once again a flagship production here especially the recent.
5:38 am
back in his day you hung on for praise the exquisite moselle wine well fed to russia could a husky related how he slowly drank his way down the river. today didn't miss from the once again producing world renowned premium wines like marcus monotonic his leno take is deliberate so nothing distracts from the wines he took over his father's wine estate in the 1980 s. and made it one of the region's largest but his interest is quality not quantity wine connoisseurs the world over appreciate his vintages at auctions his recent regularly fetch record prices many people don't realize that 80 to 100 years ago are wines with the most expensive wines in the world by far. in the 1920 s. a reason just twice or 3 times as much as the most expensive bore do or burgundy or for that i'm sorry amun that's a. other highly successful wineries bring the muscle back where it was 100 years
5:39 am
ago would you offer. the most elderly has more steep slope vineyards than anywhere else in the world each location is different and boasts its own individual flavors but 90 percent of the vineyards here are devoted to one great variety greasing. to get the most intense flavors the grapes are harvested as late as possible the region slight soils make moselle recent unique. see have seen the slices here it produces very sad in my very minute here it's misleading wines with space you know. grease a bit of this later is that it grettir's always releasing the minerals into the same. a few of the vintners on the moselle have also turned to tourism as an additional source of revenue at the long ensured a wine estate nutria guests can stay overnight in these been their cottages.
5:40 am
still marcos long and its primary business will always remain making good wines he also plants red varieties like space. but greasing is number one why markus long and is typical of the new generation of news on the moselle the generation competing to make and market the best wines in. its image this morning the image of mosul riesling has greatly improved in recent years. even young people consider drinking recycling from the model very trendy. riesling makes delicious sparkling wine as well riddled overturned by hand of course.
5:41 am
the river and the wind somehow they belong together especially in this section of the muzzle nearby it's where you'll find the calm one which is probably the most famous vignette in germany because of its steep slope. i have an appointment with wine maker martino's. how did you become a wine maker. in a roundabout way i trained as an industrial sales rep but quickly realised that i wasn't meant to sit around in an office all day. so then i decided to become oven or. my parents had operated a winery and i could see that it afforded a lot more opportunities for me. so i trained to be a wine grower here on the most. and later i studied in ology in the garden verdant went on. i can find any regrets you know with
5:42 am
scenery like this definitely not the finish i would about ok but it's strenuous look how we're standing it's super steep athletes to do the work. i know the people from around here are used to working on steep slopes that's not a problem for them and. the most important thing is to have a good foot where it is and it helps if you're not too afraid of heights. why is the wind from the muzzle so special how does it differ from other winds on the vine . using board it's the soil. because we have these steve shale slopes the slate found that these elevations warms the vineyards slightly due to its dark color the slate stores heat which is a mid to the grape vines little by little. and that means it's always a little warmer up here on the. bill than in the flatter areas and that helps the
5:43 am
resupplying most of all to ripen well because recently is a great variety that ripens relatively late so here the recently matures nicely without acquiring too high an alcohol content and due to the shale soil it has a great mineralogy she can eat one. you can but it tastes very good. there were still too far from harvest time so it won't be much of a treat you'll notice that the grapes are still pretty hard but if you want to try go ahead. into one. or all because like i said recently ripens. because there's still a lot of acid and not much sugar we have other varieties that mature somewhat sooner and already taste great they'd have been better for a taste don't be offended but just spit it out.
5:44 am
and tackle this thing. out of the vignettes and into the you know take up. his wine shop where you can taste the fruits of his labor as a wine maker. and what have you got for me. i've selected a wine for you a recycling of course from the vineyard we just visited. reasons and give it a try. with pleasure. to your health.
5:45 am
now this is. wonderful glad you like it maybe you noticed the mineralogy i was talking about. well i'm not much of a wine connoisseur and if i could say that the wine is somewhere between sweet and sour what should i be tasting what is unique about this one because for the vine. generally it has a slightly peachy aroma as is the case with many recently. the nice really characteristic thing about our recent grown on the steep slopes is it's like mineralogy which makes it taste a bit salty. if you let the wind dance around a bit on your palate it develops this characteristic quality and a certain lightness. even though it's quite mature it's a bit lighter and doesn't have such a high alcohol content. that's what makes the mosul and its shale soils so special and water bodies are. these are most of your guests wine connoisseurs earth do they
5:46 am
tend to be more like me you know i mean how movie does this work at gunpoint commish it's really quite mixed. here on the most we have a lot of guests who come for the wine and know a lot about it. yes but it wasn't in the divine but we also have a lot who are less familiar with it or this might be the 1st time they've got to know it more intensively. but in recent years we've noticed that a younger crowd is coming to the most. people between the ages of 25 and 35 like to come here to cycle. or do a climbing to or through the cow month so far on. what. i want someone who will. discover the old cliche of the mosul as a place where you taste wine with an old event in or in a stuffy little room no longer apply. we've caught up with the times
