Wine Country


The Rhine Valley, or the section of it containing Rudesheim, is Riesling country. This may explain Rudesheim's myriad bars, come to think of it. 
When I was in Paris, I saw a wine bottle in the Baccarat museum, called Johannisberg. I, being a Jozi girl, took a picture of it despite the spelling. Near Rudesheim, I saw a kloster and vineyard called Johannisberg, which is probably the proper explanation for the 1878 wine bottle. However, still being a Jozi girl, I took a picture.
