On the banks of the Mosel River, Traben-Trarbach hosts a lively scene for four days each July—showcasing regional Rieslings and pétillants under warm, sunny skies. Local tourism boards lead the festival, drawing locals, summer tourists, and professionals to wine stands and evening concerts.
This large-scale event invites open participation; though casual visitors make up most attendees, the “Unterwelt” wine tastings, special guided tours, and winemaker booths also appeal to trade buyers. Distributors can discover unique micro-vintages, assess Mosel’s slate-soil offerings, and start dialogues with passionate boutique wineries.
As Mosel’s festival grows, suppliers gain visibility at both cellar-door and festival levels, making it a key stop for trade professionals seeking terroir-rich wines and direct sourcing opportunities.
The festival is organized by the Tourismuszweckverband Moselregion Traben‑Trarbach Kröv (Tourist Association of the Moselle Region, including Traben‑Trarbach and Kröv). The event unfolds along the Mosel riverbanks in Traben‑Trarbach, often referred to as “Moselufer.” Specific venues include the Weingut Trossen area (Alter Brauerweg 6, 56841 Traben‑Trarbach), plus a charming wine village and stage area on the riverbank.
Some reasons why the event should be attended by wine importers and distributors. It’s a showcase event for Moselwinzer, featuring top-quality regional producers and their wines—ideal for sourcing and networking. The festival attracts trade professionals, wine lovers, and international visitors—great for market insights and establishing relationships. Includes specialized activities like guided “Unterwelt-Weinproben” (wine tastings in historic cellars), offering a deeper connection to the wines and winemakers. The relaxed wine village atmosphere fosters informal discussions and tastings, valuable for import evaluation.
