Fodor's Expert Review Schloss Johannisberg

Oestrich-Winkel Fodor's Choice
Schloss Johannisberg, Oestrich-Winkel, The Rhineland, Germany, Europe.

The origins of this grand wine estate date from 1100, when Benedictine monks built a monastery and planted vines on the slopes below. The striking early-18th-century palace is closed to the public, but wine tastings and cellar tours take place from Monday to Saturday, and there is an excellent wine shop, which also offers the estate's gin. The excellent restaurant, Schlossschänke, offers stunning views over the vineyards.
