The city is surrounded by green hills full of vineyards that go for kilometres. You can admire them from above, riding a chairlift or a gondola about which I wrote <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/en\/2014\/07\/28\/charming-rudesheim-germany-can-stunning\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>. However, the best way to see it is to go and take a long walk through the vineyard. It&#8217;s amazing! No people, calm, only us and the vines, vines and even more vines! Maks is eager to start picking grapes it since he still remembers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/en\/2013\/10\/07\/palac-mierzecin-ever-participated-vintage\/\" target=\"_blank\"> last year&#8217;s vintage at Mierz\u0119cin Palace.<\/a> Riesling is the 20th most popular vine type, but when it comes to quality white wines, it&#8217;s in the top 3 along with chardonnay and sauvignon blanc. Of course in Germany, riesling is the king &#8211; it&#8217;s definitely the most popular vine here.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15718\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15718\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-15718\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/DSC6618-640x425.jpg\" alt=\"Rudesheim, wine, riesling, Rhineland, Vines\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15718\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">a walk through the vineyards<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15719\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15719\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-15719\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/DSC6637-640x425.jpg\" alt=\"Rudesheim, wine, riesling, vines, Rhineland\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15719\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">with a view at Rudesheim and Rhine<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In R\u00fcdesheim there&#8217;s plenty of shops and wine cellars owned by various producers. <strong>Konig, Leitz i Georg Breuer<\/strong> are the most popular ones. We had the opportunity to visit the wine-stacked cellar of the latter.<\/p>\n<p>Breuer family has been in the wine business since the early 20th century. It&#8217;s a typically family business with a few generations involved and everybody having a precisely determined job. They specialise in white wine. Breuers identify themselves with their wines &#8211; it&#8217;s their philosophy. Wine is an important element of culture and life for them and therefore they care not only about the contents but also about the packaging &#8211; they often invite artists to design the wine labels. 85 per cent of Breuers&#8217; rieslings come from the vineyards of R\u00fcdesheim and Rauenthal. Apart from riesling, they also cultivate Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15720\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15720\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-15720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/DSC7170-640x425.jpg\" alt=\"Georg Breuer, Rhineland, wine, riesling, Rudesheim\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15720\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">mysterious cellars of the Breuer family<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15721\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15721\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-15721\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/DSC7162-640x425.jpg\" alt=\"Georg Breuer, Rudesheim, Rhineland, wine, riesling\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15721\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">waiting for their turn..<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15722\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15722\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-15722\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/DSC7153-640x963.jpg\" alt=\"Georg Breuer, wine, riesling, Rudesheim, Rhineland\" width=\"640\" height=\"963\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15722\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">sometimes th aging process takes veeery long<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The best way to try Georg Breuer&#8217;s rieslings is in his restaurant called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.georg-breuer.com\/index.php?s=e_ruedesheimerschloss\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Breuer R\u00fcdesheimer Schloss<\/strong><\/a>, one that&#8217;s probably most lively and crowded in whole R\u00fcdesheim. A large area outside and even bigger halls inside, with live music in the evenings which made Maks very happy. I have to tell you that it was in R\u00fcdesheim, where Maks earned his first money! For his wild dances, he got 2 euro from an American family sitting next to us so he can buy himself an &#8220;ice cream or chocolate&#8221; &#8211; we didn&#8217;t want to take it, but they insisted. Te cuisine at <strong>Breuer Rudesheimer Schloss<\/strong> is absolutely German &#8211; schnitzels, bratwursts, steaks, pork chops and trouts. Duck stuffed with dactyls and figs, sliced at the table, served with aromatic sauce and veeery tasty is a house specialty! Marinated cheese with nuts and raisins wasn&#8217;t that good though. I wanted to try it so bad and it looked so appetising in a little jar, but the flavour was quite weird! \u0141ukasz liked the seasonal dish the most &#8211; veal liver with chantarelle and potato puree with truffle olive oil. Maks rated the restaurant A+ &#8211; where else could he get his beloved wieners??? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15723\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15723\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-15723\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/DSC6551-640x425.jpg\" alt=\"starters, Germany, Rhineland, Rudesheim, Breuer Rudesheimer Schloss\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15723\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">to start with!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15724\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15724\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-15724\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/DSC7015-640x425.jpg\" alt=\"Breuer Rudesheimer Schloss, German cuisine, Rudesheim\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15724\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">a herring &#8211; an all time must for \u0141ukasz<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_15726\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15726\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-15726\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/DSC7020-640x425.jpg\" alt=\"Rudesheim, wine, riesling, Breuer Rudesheimer Schloss, duck\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-15726\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">duck with figs and dactyls &#8211; Breuer Rudesheimer Schloss&#8217; specialty<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One more positive information to end the entry &#8211; <strong>you can also try Georg Breuer&#8217;s wines in Warsaw &#8211; try <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteaway.pl\/2014\/04\/09\/wieczor-z-winem-najlepiej-winiarnia-mielzynski\/\" target=\"_blank\">Miel\u017cy\u0144ski on Burakowska<\/a><\/strong> &#8211; they will surely have it :).
