Description
If you’ve always wanted to know what steps go into making a bottle of wine, what makes a good vintage, how to influence the taste and quality of a wine, and what adjustments winemakers make, then Paul is the right man for you.
He is up to date in viticulture and winemaking, in constant exchange with other experts and has enough experience to put the gray theory into practice. Paul likes to explain and inspires with his relaxed and motivated manner. He will take you through the wine year on six dates in Siefersheim and you will be able to help out from pruning to harvesting.
The result of your work, a 6-pack of your own wine, can then be shared proudly with your friends along with your newly acquired wine knowledge – or kept like a treasure.
Those who participate can probably look forward to the following events in Siefersheim:
Pruning on Saturday, February 7, 2026, approx. 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

Please note that we work with nature.
Depending on the vintage or weather conditions, there may be deviations, especially with regard to the two harvest dates and the quality-enhancing measures. Individual dates may be postponed or canceled altogether. We will then impart the relevant knowledge at the subsequent dates. If you are unable to attend on a particular date, we will impart the necessary knowledge during the next meeting and you can make up for your participation the following year.
