whenever i pass the vineyard of bermatingen i remember the nice wine tasting with our neighbours in spring of 2012. considering that we live in a dedicated wine-growing region, tina and i drink really not a lot of the red or white juice of the grape. theoretically i'd enjoy working up a wine appetite at the local shop by nosing and tasting several sorts of wine.

if i'd only come home earlier more often.

weekend after next the wine festival of our village is due. today in the evening we went for a blow in the vineyards with kingston, the dog of our neighbours. the light came in in a shallow angle and pierced the leafs of the vines. funnily there was exactly one yellow-red leaf that shined out the bulk of green ones.

the stroll generated a thrill of anticipation to the festival where the different wines of the last vintages will be served. a year from now at the latest we'll see if this year's vintage will be as good as the last ones.
