Wine Tours - Boppard wines regularly feature among the winners at annual prize giving ceremonies. The Boppard wine growers sell their wine themselves, with much of their produce finding a ready market locally. There are plenty of opportunities to sample these exquisite wines. In spring you can enjoy the wines alfresco right between the vines at the Middle Rhine "wine spring". In summer you can succumb to the temptation of the "wine sampling" in the Electoral Palace, and in Autumn treat yourself to the grand wine festival which attracts over 100,000 visitors each year. Plus Boppard's winegrowers offer wine tastings and opportunities to visit their cellars throughout the year. - Walk along the wine "wine trail" on the slopes of the Bopparder Hamm.
