September 5, 2026, harvesting Germany's iconic Riesling grapes at Bosch winery's vineyards close to Bad Schönborn, Baden, Kraichgau. Subsoil of Bosch's Riesling vineyards consists of Posidonia schist yielding top quality grapes.

Top quality Riesling grapes. Vineyards with Posidonia schist as subsoil. Perfect weather for harvesting grapes, dry, sunny, some clouds, not too hot. After several hours of harvesting grapes everybody is hungry and thirsty. Today's vintager meal consists of shashliks (YUMMY!). Spritzer (10% wine, 90% mineral water) is perfect for quenching your thirst.

Grape harvest 2026 in Germany started August 12. The earliest harvest ever!
Today I helped Weingut Bosch harvesting Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) grapes at vineyards close to Bad Schönborn (Baden, Kraichgau region).

Grapes and leaves have been sprayed with rock flour as shelter against the burning sun. Grape harvest. Not all grapes look nice. Many have few and small berries, unripe, green or shriveled by heat. I gather the grapes in a large vat und and bring them to the truck. The truck transports the grapes to the wine cellar.
