Wine drinkers know how to enjoy life, and the wine festivals of the Rhineland-Palatinate are a pure pleasure, as diverse as the grapes that are grown and pressed here.
Whole towns and villages, large and small, really let their hair down, because the wine harvest is often the most important festival of the year. Streets, lanes and squares are decorated, garlands of leaves and coloured ribbons bedeck the wine stalls. The air is full of music and the scent of wine. Festivals may culminate in the crowning of wine princesses, queens or even Bacchus, the god of wine. Often, there are colourful processions through the villages to celebrate the pleasure of wine and its traditions.
