Zum Wohl ! End of the harvest in the Pfalz...

The harvest team from Weingut Lingenfelder, my old winery, celebrate the end of the harvest a few days ago. They have just picked the last of the Spatburgunder (Pinot Noir) from the Hang vineyard which is the one just to the left in the photo above. The village of Grosskarlbach, where the winery is located, is behind and I can see my old apartment from here. Here in the Pfalz, as in a lot of places in Europe, the vineyards occupy the best parcels of land with the villages wedged in the colder, low lying spots between.
