Metzingen and wine? Does that fit? Very well even!
Regionally grown, internationally appreciated. Connoisseurs and enthusiasts appreciate the viticultural tradition, whose origin can be traced back to the 11th century.With around 30 hectares of cultivated area, the Weingärtnergenossenschaft Metzingen-Neuhausen e.V. is one of the smallest producer associations in the "Weinland Württemberg" - but the products are delicious.
