Germany "From Berlin to Frankfurt" 2023 (Saale Unstrut, Sachsen, Franken, Württemberg) by ombiasy WineTours took place from Monday, June 19, 2023 to Thursday, June 29, 2023.
We visited 3 wineries in Sachsen:
Weingut Martin Schwarz (VDP) in Meissen.
Weingut Schloss Proschwitz, Prinz zur Lippe (VDP) in Meissen.
Sächsisches Staatsweingut Schloss Wackerbarth in Radebeul.
At Weingut Schloss Proschwitz, Prinz zur Lippe (VDP) in Meissen, we were jointly hosted by Björn Probst, Vineyard and Sales Manager, and Robert Kroos, Event Manager.
We met in the vineyard just opposite of Meissen with a breathtaking view of the Albrechtscastle and the cathedral in Meissen and tasted several sparklers there. We continued in the new tasting room of Schloss Proschwitz with a seated tasting. The visit ended with a short tour of Schloss Proschwitz.
Weingut Schloss Proschwitz, Prinz zur Lippe (VDP) in Meissen, Sachsen
The
Prinz zur Lippe family was first mentioned in the early 12th century
and belonged to the reigning dynasties in Europe until 1918. For more
than 300 years, the family branch of Georg Prinz zur Lippe, owner of
winery Schloss Proschwitz, lived in Sachsen and produced wine.
However there is a 45-year long interruption, when in 1945 the Russians occupied the eastern half of Germany, and expropriated and expelled the family.
Immediately after Germany’s reunification, Georg Prinz zur Lippe started to buy back his family’s wine estate and ancestral residence, the Proschwitz castle. Since then he has restored the castle to its former glory, and invested heavily to build up the winery to become a state-of-the-art wine-producing estate.
With 220 acres under vine the estate belongs to one of the larger wineries in Germany and is the largest privately owned winery in Sachsen. Great care is given to sustainable techniques in the vineyard to enable future generations to continue to produce outstanding wines. The view from the vineyard towards the Albrechtscastle and cathedral in Meissen is spectacular.
