The town of Offenburg is located at the heart of the sunny Baden wine region, between the river Rhine and the Black Forest amid the vineyards and orchards of the Ortenau. For the friendly and hospitable locals, wonderful wines and excellent food are part of everyday life. In addition to the region's modern vinotheks and lively wine festivals, the Baden Wine Fair in Offenburg on 5 and 6 May 2012 gives visitors another opportunity to discover the delights of Baden wines, brandies, sekt and other culinary highlights.
