24T67 Von Trauben zu Türmen (from grapes to towers)

By on

E66 V33

It’s early Saturday morning, and I head north to the Nussdorf ridge-line for a little hike and a long look. There’s the occasional jogger and bicyclist willing to climb the grade. But Nussdorf is home to many vineyards. As Europe’s largest urban vineyard, Vienna has within city limits about 700 hectares (1700 acres) of vineyards, producing over 2.5 million litres of wine every year.

61-seconds: “from grapes to towers.”
Wine grapes, but there’s still time to mature and ripen; it’s only mid-summer.
I’m a fan of the Grüner Veltliner and the “mix” in Gemischter Satz.
Facing southeast over vines and Danube river, and towards various towers; including the Donauturm (left-centre), DC Tower 1 (centre), and the Millennium Tower (right).
Nussberger Weinberge (Nussberg vineyards), as the slope falls off and “disappears.”

I made the photos and video above with an iPhone15 on 13 Jul 2024. This post composed with Jetpack for iOS appears on Fotoeins Fotografie at fotoeins DOT com.
