I tasted this wine in its cellar in Rudesheim. Tasted it last after a bunch of sweet wines and though was not impressed purchased a bottle to bring back to the states. What a pleasant surprise. A very quaffable wine. A tad too sweet, but loads of fresh strawberries and a bit of mint. Wish I had purchased additional bottles.

Like you, we did a cruise up down the Rhine. We did both a wine tasting at Bassenheimer Hof as well as a hike through the vineyards to and from Niederwaldtempel. The tasting was large (because the group was large) and (yes) a bit touristy. The wines were not remarkable, with the above being the best of the bunch. BTW, the best wine tasking we did was at Historic Wine Cellar of
Strasbourg Hospices in Strasbourg. The guide was wonderful, the surroundings spectacular, a great story and many wines to chose from.

Weather dependent, the hike through the vineyards is great. If you are not up for a hike up the hill, there is a cable car that goes in both directions. The view of the Rhine is wonderful and Niederwaldtempel is historic, you can see the birth of German nationalism pre-WWI.

Another very enjoyable stop was Siegfried's Mechanical Music Cabinet Museum. Beautiful animitronics music creations. https://www.smmk.de/en/home.html

Enjoy your trip and feel free to reach out if there other questions.
