Day 5. Koblenz + Winningen
We spent the morning at the mighty Fortress Ehrenbreitstein, overlooking the "Deutsches Eck" and the Rhein and Mosel valleys.
For lunch, we went to @Verbene Bistro in Koblenz, the sister restaurant of the Michelin-starred Restaurant Verbene. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch prepared by Chef Tim Johnston and an impromptu tasting of the wines of @Weingut Madame Flöck Madameflockwines (Winningen/ Mosel) poured by owner/ winemaker @Robert Kane , who helps out at Verbene Bistro occasionally. "Founded by the American Robert Kane and Canadian Derek-Paul Labelle with a mission to sustainably craft crazy natural dry Red and White wines that are made as sustainably as these two unsustainable expats know how to." We were greeted by Michelin-starred Verbene Restaurant Chef/ Owner David Weigang and partner Verena Schimmel.
