The six of us were picked up punctually by our guide Rolf at the station, and enjoyed a pleasant walk through the vineyards near Maienfeld. We gained lots of fascinating insights into the world of winemakers. Afterwards, we visited Lampert's winery where we learned all about the production of various wines and got to taste four different ones. Cheese and salami were served alongside. Overall, we had a very enjoyable and educational afternoon. It was a lot of fun!
