Wine education - a special kind of guided tour

Hasn't wine always been omnipresent - in art and literature, in the world of enjoyment and, for many, as a matter of course in everyday life? Often reduced to an alcoholic beverage among many alternatives, we tend to forget how complex its nature actually is. What do we know about its nature, its origins, its sensual power and its connection to surreal worlds? Why does wine play a central role in myths, iconic music, architecture, gnosticism and religions? What significance does it have in the culture of pleasure and in natural medicine?

This guided tour of the historic building is dedicated to these questions.

Duration: 90 minutes
