Context
Why this date is interesting
The Dominican Church stands in the middle of Krems old town, the town whose wine history we trace in our Kremstal article. A provincial wine christening there, combined with young winemakers at the wine bar, shows nicely how old and how young the Kremstal is at the same time.
