Pictures from the Kaiserstuhl Field Trip

Our first stop was by a vineyard just outside Ihringen, above which was a rock face consisting of two distinct basalt lava layers from flows from one of six or seven ancient, ruined, volcanic craters which make up the Kaiserstuhl

The top of a crater rim called Mondhalde, at 370 metres above sea level, overlooked the terraced vineyards in glowing autumnal shades

Wine cellar

Our second stop was at the local wine co-operative, Winzerverein Oberrotweil, where we were able to .... study the apparently interesting limestone wall of the wine cellar
