Ludwigsburg's Weinlaube Kicks Off with a Bang
The 44th Weinlaube in Ludwigsburg has officially opened its doors, and it seems that the city's residents and visitors alike are eager to partake in the gourmet mile event. The wine terrace, situated on the town hall square, reopened last Thursday and welcomed a crowded opening night, with even more visitors the following day.
The event, which runs from August 7 to 23, offers approximately 140 different wines for customers to sample, including a chilled Trollinger Kabinett from the Lauffener wine growers for 5.50 euros and a "Black Racer" Sauvignon Blanc from the Felsengarten winery for 7 euros.
For those seeking a bite to eat, the food tent offers a variety of regional dishes, such as Swabian sour tripe, vegetarian ricotta-spinach ravioli, Weinlaube Pinsa, seafood options, cheese cubes, veal bratwurst, and marinated salmon. Oysters, which were popular on the opening night, are available for five euros each.
The Weinlaube remains open daily until 23 August from 5 pm. It's worth noting that leaving glasses behind on the way home can annoy residents along the route, according to Peter Buhl, one of the four Weinlaube hosts. Regular patrons of the Weinlaube often bring their own glasses from previous years to avoid this issue.
New glasses can be purchased for 2.50 euros each, and a 0.2-liter glass of wine starts at five euros, with the most expensive wines costing 9.50 euros. Non-alcoholic options include a sparkling wine (four euros) and a white wine (six euros) from Schloss Affaltrach, and a non-alcoholic rosé, which are the only alcohol-free wine options on the wine terrace.
Based on typical costs at similar regional wine taverns (Weinstuben) in Ludwigsburg or nearby areas, an evening at the Weinlaube including wine and food for two moderately hungry people would roughly cost €28 to €42. This estimate is indicative due to the lack of direct pricing data from the Weinlaube in the search results, and actual prices may vary depending on the menu and wine selection. For precise, up-to-date pricing, contacting the Weinlaube in Ludwigsburg directly or checking their official website or wine tavern menus would be recommended.
The excellent weather is reported to be contributing to the popularity of the Weinlaube, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of wine and some delicious food with friends and family. So if you're in the Ludwigsburg area, be sure to stop by the Weinlaube before it closes on the 23rd of August!
