Ten wine regions represented in Duisburg
Around 20,000 guests visited this year's wine festival in Duisburg. The German Wine Princess Katharina Gräff opened the event, which has been a major attraction in the city centre of the Rhine-Ruhr city since 1986.
Customers become friends
She represented 50 wine producers and their employees in an authentic way. Katharina Gräff describes the atmosphere at the Duisburg Wine Festival as follows:
<p <p>I'm going to try a glass", it becomes "I need it for moments of pleasure at home" and customers become friends for many years.Greatest wine festival outside of a wine-growing region
The Duisburg Wine Festival was first held in 1986. It is the largest of its kind outside of a wine-growing region.
