Rapunzel Research Paper

A few hours away from Frankfurt, in the rocky hillside of Germany lays an eerie old prison on a moat and dam a hundred meters paramount the Keuper Mountain. The worn out prison sits on a rough six acre plateau isolated from its beautiful surroundings. Below it are the steep slopes of the hillside that are terraced with miles of vine yards, which in the summer create a poised yet defined tasting wine that balances fruit, sweetness, acidity and elegance, plus first prize when the local wine festivals are in full swing.
