About Bernkastel-Kues
Bernkastel-Kues is the wine-tourist epicentre of the Moselle, a half-timbered jewel-box of crooked Renaissance houses around a fountain-and-Rathaus market square. The vineyards immediately behind the town include the Bernkasteler Doctor, one of the most expensive Riesling vineyards in Germany, and tastings on the cobbled square or at the medieval Sankt Nikolaus Hospital across the river are a fixture of every shore excursion.
